Stigmergic reasoning over hierarchical task networks
Stigmergy is usually associated with semantically simple problems such as routing. It can be applied to more complex problems by encoding them in the environment through which sti...

Convex optimization techniques for fitting sparse Gaussian graphical models
We consider the problem of fitting a large-scale covariance matrix to multivariate Gaussian data in such a way that the inverse is sparse, thus providing model selection. Beginnin...

A Lower Bound for the Shortest Path Problem
We show that the Shortest Path Problem cannot be solved in o(log n) time on an unbounded fan-in PRAM without bit operations using poly(n) processors even when the bit-lengths of t...
