Distributed sequence prediction: A consensus+innovations approach
This paper focuses on the problem of distributed sequence prediction in a network of sparsely interconnected agents, where agents collaborate to achieve provably reasonable predictive performance. An expert assisted online learning algorithm in a distributed setup of the consensus+innovations form is proposed, in which the agents update their weights for the experts’ predictions by simultaneous...
متن کاملMega Weaver: A Simple Iterative Approach for BAC Consensus Assembly
Hierarchical genome assembly can be divided into three distinct stages: sequencing and assembling shotgun reads for each of a series of selected BAC clones; assembling the resulting fragments into BAC consensus sequences; and mapping and orienting the BAC consensus according to external positional information. We report a new approach for BAC consensus assembly that relies on iterative layouts ...
متن کاملPrediction of partial membrane protein topologies using a consensus approach.
We have developed a method to reliably identify partial membrane protein topologies using the consensus of five topology prediction methods. When evaluated on a test set of experimentally characterized proteins, we find that approximately 90% of the partial consensus topologies are correctly predicted in membrane proteins from prokaryotic as well as eukaryotic organisms. Whole-genome analysis r...
متن کاملPrediction of OCR accuracy using simple image features
A classifier for predicting the character accuracy achieved by any Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system on a given page is presented. This classifier is based on measuring the amount of white speckle, the amount of character fragments, and overall size information in the page. No output from the OCR system is used. The given page is classified as either “good” quality (i.e., high OCR accu...
متن کاملA combined epidemiologic and metabolomic approach improves CKD prediction.
Metabolomic approaches have begun to catalog the metabolic disturbances that accompany CKD, but whether metabolite alterations can predict future CKD is unknown. We performed liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry-based metabolite profiling on plasma from 1434 participants in the Framingham Heart Study (FHS) who did not have CKD at baseline. During the following 8 years, 123 individuals develo...
