The programming community seems to be forever searching for the ultimate user interface programming approach and the accompanying framework. We describe the landscape of recent efforts in this quest through describing ...

Evolutionary multi-task optimization attempts to solve multiple optimization problems simultaneously by modeling the solution structures of two or more problems within a single encoding. In this paper, we report a novel ...

In both terrestrial and marine ecology, physical tagging is a frequently used method to study population dynamics and behavior. However, such tagging techniques are increasingly being replaced by individual re-identification ...

Let Fq0 be a finite field of odd characteristic. For an integer s≥1 , let Cs(q0) be the generalized Zetterberg code of length qs0+1 over Fq0 . If s is even, then we prove that the covering radius of Cs(q0) is 3. Put q=qs0 ...

We study two “above guarantee” versions of the classical Longest Path problem on undirected and directed graphs and obtain the following results. In the first variant of Longest Path that we study, called Longest Detour, ...

We introduce the rendezvous game with adversaries. In this game, two players, Facilitator and Divider, play against each other on a graph. Facilitator has two agents and Divider has a team of k agents located in some ...

We revisit a graph width parameter that we dub bipartite treewidth, along with its associated graph decomposition that we call bipartite tree decomposition. Bipartite treewidth can be seen as a common generalization of ...

k-means and k-median clustering are powerful unsupervised machine learning techniques. However, due to complicated dependencies on all the features, it is challenging to interpret the resulting cluster assignments. Moshkovitz, ...

The viability of Virtual Reality (VR) is being explored in an increasing number of fields outside its primary use in entertainment. A notable example is VR therapy, where VR-based alternatives to exposure therapy and ...
