β¦ Synopsis
The repeated median line estimator is a highly robust method for fitting a regression line to a set of n data points in the plane. In this paper, we consider the problem of updating the estimate after a point is removed from or added to the data set. This problem occurs, e.g., in statistical online monitoring, where the computational effort is often critical. We present a deterministic algorithm for the update working in O(n) time and O(n 2 ) space.

## Abstract A linear regression model with random walk coefficients is extended to allow for linear restrictions between the coefficients to be satisfied at each point in time. Estimation in this model is shown to be no more involved than estimation in the standard model. It is also demonstrated ho
We present a linear-time algorithm that finds all edges and vertices in the intersection of all odd cycles in a given graph. We also show an application of our algorithm to a variant of the satisfiability problem of Boolean formulas.
