I just want to mention that these algorithms were known way back and it is sad that the authors of CRAN package do not acknowledge it in their docs:

1. O(NK^2) dynamic programming from 1965 by James Bruce (https://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/4396/RLE-TR-4...)

2. O(KNlogN) dynamic + divide&conquer algorighm from 1989 from Xiaolin Wu and John Rokne (http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/75427.75472)

3. O(NK) algorithm from 1991 by Xiaolin Wu (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0196-6774(91)90039-2)

Is there any implementation in Python / Julia / MATLAB?
