Instance-based learning (IBL) algorithms have proved to be successful in many applications. However, as opposed to standard statistical methods, a prediction in IBL is usually give...
We construct a novel agent-based model of prediction markets in which putative human qualities like learning, reasoning, and profit-seeking are absent. We show that the prices whi...
We create a support system for predicting end prices on eBay. The end price predictions are based on the item descriptions found in the item listings of eBay, and on some numerica...

We introduce novel discriminative learning algorithms for dynamical systems. Models such as Conditional Random Fields or Maximum Entropy Markov Models outperform the generative Hi...
Cultural profiling involves a complex interplay of multiple dimensions that are virtually impossible to wholly address. This paper explores several cultural (nationality and its as...
