With the remarkable increase in the number of DNA and proteins sequences, it is very important to study the performance of multiple pattern matching algorithms when querying sequence patterns in biological sequence databases. In this paper, we present a performance study of the running time of well known multiple pattern matching algorithms on widely used biological sequence databases containing the building blocks of nucleotides (in the case of nucleic acid sequence databases) and amino acids (in the case of protein sequence databases).

Large-scale data processing needs of enterprises today are primarily met with distributed and parallel computing in data centers. MapReduce has emerged as an important programming model for these environments. Since today's data centers run many MapReduce jobs in parallel, it is important to find a good scheduling algorithm that can optimize the completion times of these jobs. While several recent papers focused on optimizing the scheduler, there exists very little theoretical understanding of the scheduling problem in the context of MapReduce. In this paper, we seek to address this problem by first presenting a simplified abstraction of the MapReduce scheduling problem, and then formulate the scheduling problem as an optimization problem. We devise various online and offline algorithms to arrive at a good ordering of jobs to minimize the overall job completion times. Since optimal solutions are hard to compute (NP-hard), we propose approximation algorithms that work within a factor of 3 of the optimal. Using simulations, we also compare our online algorithm with standard scheduling strategies such as FIFO, Shortest Job First and show that our algorithm consistently outperforms these across different job distributions.

A conventional image matching techniques may be classified as either area based or feature based methods. In this paper an area based image matching method is proposed for dense disparity map. The method is a composite technique where first the similarity measure between template window and search window is found by normalized cross correlation technique. Few best matches are selected for the template window from the search sub windows, considering the largest normalized cross correlation coefficient. Further edge map is obtained for stereo image pair using canny edge detector. The matches for the template window are filtered using Hausdorff distance technique. Further texture analysis of the same template window and selected search windows is the third measure to decide the accurate match. Texture analysis is done with the co-occurrence matrices which is a two dimensional histogram of the occurrence of pair of intensity value in a given spatial relationship. With this composite method dense point to point correspondence can be achieved with greater accuracy. This method is tolerant to radiometric distortions and parallelprocessing of the three techniques will improve the speed.

In this paper we propose a new method for simultaneous assessment of local and distributed functional brain connectivity from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. Our method maps fMRI time series from brain voxels into a high dimensional feature space where in clustering and vector quantization are performed in order to aggregate voxels with similar temporal evolution and segregate those with low temporal correlation. An iterative algorithm is proposed based on the Eigen structure of the geodesic distance matrix of the high dimensional manifold for selecting the number of clusters. The choice is then verified by unfolding the manifold using ISOMAP. A combined connectivity index (CCI) is then defined for every brain region based on the percentage of its voxels connected to each other and to voxels from other regions. The CCI maps local and distributed connectivity on a continuum from 0 to 1. This method was applied to resting state fMRI data obtained from humans in one of the two states: normal awake state and a sedated state induced by propofol anesthesia. Our results demonstrate that propofol anesthesia makes the connectivity in the brain become more local and less distributed as compared to awake state. In addition, our results show that the distributed connectivity between the thalamus and the cortex is greatly impacted by anesthesia, lending support to the thalamo-cortical disconnection hypothesis. However, our results indicate the thalamus was still connected to the cortex via the amygdala, providing a pathway for sensory information to reach the cortex during sedation. In the cortex, the connectivity also tended to become more local than distributed, supporting the cortico-cortical disconnection hypothesis. Therefore, our conclusions reconcile both the hypotheses of anesthetic action and altered states of consciousness, and demonstrate the utility of our approach for addressing important neuroscientific questions.
