In sequential prediction tasks, one repeatedly tries to predict the next element in a sequence. A classical way to solve these problems is to fit an order-n Markov model to the da...
We present the first optimal algorithm to compute the maximum Tukey depth (also known as location or halfspace depth) for a non-degenerate point set in the plane. The algorithm is...
Distributed Constraint Optimization (DCOP) is a general framework that can model complex problems in multi-agent systems. Several current algorithms that solve general DCOP instan...
Graphs are widely used for modeling complicated data, including chemical compounds, protein interactions, XML documents, and multimedia. Information retrieval against such data ca...

Within nature, the success of many organisms, including certain species of insects, mammals, slime molds, and bacteria, is attributed to their performance of division of labor, wh...
