Feature importance network reveals novel functional relationships between biological features in Arabidopsis thaliana by Ng, Jonathan Wei Xiong, Chua, Swee Kwang, Mutwil, Marek

“…Here, we constructed a dataset of 11,801 gene features for 31,522 Arabidopsis thaliana genes and developed a machine learning workflow to identify linked features. The detected linked features are visualised as a Feature Important Network (FIN), which can be mined to reveal a variety of novel biological insights pertaining to gene function. …”

Multi-description multipath video streaming in wireless ad hoc networks by Xu, Yuanyuan., Zhu, Ce.

“…A heuristic solution of low complexity is developed for the interference-aware multipath routing, by introducing a path metric taking into account intra-flow interference, inter-flow interference, link bandwidth and link “up” probability. The second problem touches on unbalanced-path based joint MD video coding and packet allocation for multiple paths of varying bandwidth and loss probabilities. …”
