Testing +/- 1-Weight Halfspaces
TL;DR: It is proved that nonadaptive algorithms must make Ω(log n) queries and complement this lower bound with a sublinear upper bound showing that O( √ n·poly( 1 )) queries suffice.

Finding the Maximum Area Parallelogram in a Convex Polygon
Kai Jin,Kevin Matulef +1 more
TL;DR: This work considers the problem of finding the maximum area parallelogram (MAP) inside a given convex polygon and proposes an algorithm for computing the MAP in an n-sided polygon in O(n 2 ) time.
Journal Article
Property Testing on Linked Lists.
TL;DR: This work defines a new property testing model for algorithms that do not have arbitrary query access to the input, but must instead traverse it in a manner that respects the underlying data structure in which it is stored, and studies the well-known monotonicity testing problem.

Testing (subclasses of) halfspaces
TL;DR: This work addresses the problem of testing whether a Boolean-valued function f is a halfspace, i.e. a function of the form f(x) = sgn(wċx-θ) and shows that testing natural subclasses of halfspace can be markedly harder; for the class of {-1, 1}-weight halfspaces, it is shown that a tester must make at least O(log n) queries.
