An experimental sorting method for improving metagenomic data encoding
Diogo Pratas, Armando J. Pinho
Minimizing data storage poses a significant challenge in large-scale metagenomic projects. In this paper, we present a new method for improving the encoding of FASTQ files generate…
Automatic analysis of artistic paintings using information-based measures
Jorge Miguel Silva, Diogo Pratas, Rui Antunes +2
The artistic community is increasingly relying on automatic computational analysis for authentication and classification of artistic paintings. In this paper, we identify hidden pa…
Computing the Scope of Applicability for Acquired Task Knowledge in Experience-Based Planning Domains
Vahid Mokhtari, Luis Seabra Lopes, Armando Pinho +1
Experience-based planning domains have been proposed to improve problem solving by learning from experience. They rely on acquiring and using task knowledge, i.e., activity schemat…
Learning Task Knowledge and its Scope of Applicability in Experience-Based Planning Domains
Vahid Mokhtari, Luis Seabra Lopes, Armando Pinho +1
Experience-based planning domains (EBPDs) have been recently proposed to improve problem solving by learning from experience. EBPDs provide important concepts for long-term learnin…
Compression-Based ECG Biometric Identification Using a Non-fiducial Approach
João M. Carvalho, Susana Brás, Armando J. Pinho
Due to its characteristics, there is a trend in biometrics to use the ECG signal for personal identification. Recent works based on compression models have shown that these approac…
Extended-Alphabet Finite-Context Models
João M. Carvalho, Susana Brás, Diogo Pratas +3
The Normalized Relative Compression (NRC) is a recent dissimilarity measure, related to the Kolmogorov Complexity. It has been successfully used in different applications, like DNA…
Dissimilar Symmetric Word Pairs in the Human Genome
Ana Helena Tavares, Jakob Raymaekers, Peter J. Rousseeuw +5
In this work we explore the dissimilarity between symmetric word pairs, by comparing the inter-word distance distribution of a word to that of its reversed complement. We propose a…
Information profiles for DNA pattern discovery
Armando J. Pinho, Diogo Pratas, Paulo J. S. G. Ferreira
Finite-context modeling is a powerful tool for compressing and hence for representing DNA sequences. We describe an algorithm to detect genomic regularities, within a blind discove…
A conditional compression distance that unveils insights of the genomic evolution
Diogo Pratas, Armando J. Pinho
We describe a compression-based distance for genomic sequences. Instead of using the usual conjoint information content, as in the classical Normalized Compression Distance (NCD),…
