Mechanism design (MD) has recently become a very popular approach in the design of distributed systems of autonomous agents. A key assumption required for the application of MD is...
We analyze the problem of designing a truthful pay-per-click auction where the click-through-rates (CTR) of the bidders are unknown to the auction. Such an auction faces the class...
Bid-based Genetic Programming (GP) provides an elegant mechanism for facilitating cooperative problem decomposition without an a priori specification of the number of team member...
Micro patterns are similar to design patterns, except that micro patterns stand at a lower, closer to the implementation, level of abstraction. Micro patterns are also unique in t...
Inducing a classification function from a set of examples in the form of labeled instances is a standard problem in supervised machine learning. In this paper, we are concerned w...
