Second-generation sequencing techniques generate short reads that can result in fragmented genome assemblies. Third-generation sequencing platforms mitigate this limitation by producing longer reads that span across complex and repetitive regions. Currently, the usefulness of such long reads is limited, however…

In order to solve the large scale linear systems, backward and Jacobi iteration algorithms are employed. The convergence is the most important issue. In this paper, a unified backward iterative matrix is proposed. It shows that some well-known iterative algorithms can be deduced with it. The most important result is…

'Laxmi Rathour'] Objective In this paper, we develop a new root-finding algorithm to solve the given non-linear equations. The proposed root-finding algorithm is based on the exponential method. This algorithm is derivative-free and converges fast. Results Several numerical examples are presented to illustrate and…

Objectives The present paper describes a new algorithm to find a root of non-linear transcendental equations. It is found that Regula-Falsi method always gives guaranteed result but slow convergence. However, Newton-Raphson method does not give guaranteed result but faster than Regula-Falsi method. Therefore, the…

This study investigates the no-wait flow shop scheduling problem and proposes a hybrid (HES-IG) algorithm that utilizes makespan as the objective function. To address the complexity of this NP-hard problem, the HES-IG algorithm combines evolution strategies (ES) and iterated greedy (IG) algorithm, as hybridizing…

Bacterial genome data are accumulating at an unprecedented speed due the routine use of sequencing in clinical diagnoses, public health surveillance and population genetics studies. Genealogical reconstruction is fundamental to many of these uses, however, inferring genealogy from large-scale genome datasets quickly…

A method with high convergence rate for finding approximate inverses of nonsingular matrices is suggested and established analytically. An extension of the introduced computational scheme to general square matrices is defined. The extended method could be used for finding the Drazin inverse. The application of the…

There is a huge group of algorithms described in the literature that iteratively find solutions of a given equation. Most of them require tuning. The article presents root-finding algorithms that are based on the Newton-Raphson method which iteratively finds the solutions, and require tuning. The modification of the…

'George L. Chadderdon' 'David P. Wilson' 'Lars Kaderali'] When standard optimization methods fail to find a satisfactory solution for a parameter fitting problem, a tempting recourse is to adjust parameters manually. While tedious, this approach can be surprisingly powerful in terms of achieving optimal or near-optimal…

Recent work has suggested that feedforward residual neural networks (ResNets) approximate iterative recurrent computations. Iterative computations are useful in many domains, so they might provide good solutions for neural networks to learn. Here we quantify the degree to which ResNets learn iterative solutions and…

In the deep learning era, a gradient descent method is the most common method to optimize parameters of neural networks. Among various mathematical optimization methods, a gradient descent method is the most naive method. Although controlling a learning rate of the method is necessary for quick convergence, the…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using under-sampled k-space data is a common method to shorten the imaging time. Iterative Bayesian algorithms are usually used for its image reconstruction. This paper compares an iterative Bayesian image reconstruction method that uses both spatial and temporal constraints and a…

In the field of optimization, developing accelerated methods for solving minimax and fixed-point problems remains a fundamental challenge. This paper presents a novel family of dual accelerated algorithms that achieve optimal convergence rates for both minimax and fixed-point problems. By exploring new anchoring…

Graphs are commonly used to represent sets of sequences. Either edges or nodes can be labeled by sequences, so that each path in the graph spells a concatenated sequence. Examples include graphs to represent genome assemblies, such as string graphs and de Bruijn graphs, and graphs to represent a pan-genome and hence…
