Optimal Haplotype Assembly from High
... Clearly, if a read covers zero or one SNP, it does not contain any information about how a particular SNP relates to other SNPs on the same chromosome, and is thus useless for haplotype assembly. That is, a read helps in determining the haplotype only if it covers at least two SNPs. This may seem li ...

An elementary introduction to large deviations
... Roughly speaking, Large Deviations is a theory of rare events. It is probably the most active field in probability theory at present, one which has many surprising ramifications. One of its applications is to the analysis of the tails of probability distributions and, in recent years, this aspect of ...

The Price of Privacy and the Limits of LP Decoding
... For example, the rows of the database may be quite complex, but the attacker may know enough information about an individual in the database to uniquely identify his row. In this case the goal is to prevent any single additional bit of information to be learned from the database. In fact, careful us ...
