Comparing two or more phylogenetic trees is a fundamental task in computational biology. The simplest outcome of such a comparison is a pairwise measure of similarity, dissimilarity, or distance. A large number of such measures have been proposed, but so t ...
Numerical Ecology with R provides a long-awaited bridge between a textbook in Numerical Ecology and the implementation of this discipline in the R language. After short theoretical overviews, the authors accompany the users through the exploration of the m ...
In this paper we address the problem of detecting and localizing objects that can be both seen and heard, e.g., people. This may be solved within the framework of data clustering. We propose a new multimodal clustering algorithm based on a Gaussian mixture ...
The advance of GPS tracking technique brings a large amount of trajectory data. To better understand such mobility data, semantic models like “stop/move” (or inferring “activity”, “transportation mode”) recently become a hot topic for trajectory data analy ...
We propose to apply statistical clustering algorithms on a three-dimensional profile of red blood cells (RBCs) obtained through digital holographic microscopy (DHM). We show that two classes of RBCs stored for 14 and 38 days can be effectively classified. ...
We propose an approach for the estimation of sparse filters from a convolutive mixture of sources, exploiting the time-domain sparsity of the mixing filters and the sparsity of the sources in the time-frequency (TF) domain. The proposed approach is based o ...
Clustering on graphs has been studied extensively for years due to its numerous applications. However, in contrast to the classic problems, clustering in mobile and online social networks brings new challenges. In these scenarios, it is common that observa ...
It has been shown recently that a Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) exists in urban transportation networks under certain conditions. However, MFD is not universally expected. Previous research demonstrates the existence of MFDs in homogeneous networks ...

The following article presents a novel, adaptive initialization scheme that can be applied to most state-ofthe-art Speaker Diarization algorithms, i.e. algorithms that use agglomerative hierarchical clustering with Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) and ...
We consider the problem of estimating multiple filters from convolutive mixtures of several unknown sources. We propose to exploit both the time-frequency (TF) sparsity of the sources and the sparsity of the mixing filters. Our framework consists of: a) a ...
