ModelFinder is a fast model-selection method that greatly improves the accuracy of phylogenetic estimates. Model-based molecular phylogenetics plays an important role in comparisons of genomic ...

Modern robotic systems—in drones or autonomous vehicles, for example—use a variety of sensors, ranging from cameras and ...

Second-order: By contrast, second-order algorithms model the surface with a quadratic surrogate model then jump to the model minimum. These include Newton-like or successive quadratic algorithms. If ...

We consider novel methods for the computation of model selection criteria in missing-data problems based on the output of the EM algorithm. The methodology is very general and can be applied to ...

Machine learning algorithms are used everywhere from a smartphone to a spacecraft. They tell you the weather forecast for tomorrow, translate from one language into another, and suggest what TV ...
