…, S Raji, MS Rasooli, S Sadeghi, ES Azer… - Transactions of the …, 2021 - direct.mit.edu
Despite the progress made in recent years in addressing natural language understanding (NLU)
challenges, the majority of this progress remains to be concentrated on resource-rich …

A practical algorithm for distributed clustering and outlier detection

J Chen, E Sadeqi Azer… - Advances in neural …, 2018 - proceedings.neurips.cc
We study the classic k-means/median clustering, which are fundamental problems in
unsupervised learning, in the setting where data are partitioned across multiple sites, and where …

PhISCS-BnB: a fast branch and bound algorithm for the perfect tumor phylogeny reconstruction problem

E Sadeqi Azer, F Rashidi Mehrabadi, S Malikić… - …, 2020 - academic.oup.com
Motivation Recent advances in single-cell sequencing (SCS) offer an unprecedented
insight into tumor emergence and evolution. Principled approaches to tumor phylogeny …

Streaming periodicity with mismatches

F Ergün, E Grigorescu, ES Azer, S Zhou - arXiv preprint arXiv:1708.04381, 2017 - arxiv.org
We study the problem of finding all $k$-periods of a length-$n$ string $S$, presented as a
data stream. $S$ is said to have $k$-period $p$ if its prefix of length $np$ differs from its suffix …

Not all claims are created equal: Choosing the right statistical approach to assess hypotheses

ES Azer, D Khashabi, A Sabharwal, D Roth - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2019 - arxiv.org
Empirical research in Natural Language Processing (NLP) has adopted a narrow set of
principles for assessing hypotheses, relying mainly on p-value computation, which suffers from …

[PDF][PDF] Tumor phylogeny topology inference via deep learning

ES Azer, MH Ebrahimabadi, S Malikić, R Khardon… - Iscience, 2020 - cell.com
Principled computational approaches for tumor phylogeny reconstruction via single-cell
sequencing typically aim to build the most likely perfect phylogeny tree from the noisy genotype …

Periodicity in data streams with wildcards

F Ergün, E Grigorescu, E Sadeqi Azer… - Theory of Computing …, 2020 - Springer
We investigate the problem of detecting periodic trends within a string S of length n, arriving
in the streaming model, containing at most k wildcard characters, where k = o(n). A wildcard …
