Subspace clustering refers to the task of finding a multi-subspace representation that best fits a collection of points taken from a high-dimensional space. This paper introduces an algorithm inspired by sparse subspace clustering (SSC) [In…

In the subspace approximation problem, we seek a k-dimensional subspace F of R^d that minimizes the sum of p-th powers of Euclidean distances to a given set of n points a_1, ..., a_n in R^d, for p >= 1. More generally than minimizing sum_i…

Clustering, a fundamental task in data science and machine learning, groups a set of objects in such a way that objects in the same cluster are closer to each other than to those in other clusters. In this paper, we consider a well-known…

We present a geometric framework for regression on structured high-dimensional data that shifts the analysis from the ambient space to a geometric object capturing the data's intrinsic structure. The method addresses a fundamental challenge…

Given an $n \times d$ dimensional dataset $A$, a projection query specifies a subset $C \subseteq [d]$ of columns which yields a new $n \times |C|$ array. We study the space complexity of computing data analysis functions over such…

We present an efficient dynamic data structure that supports geodesic nearest neighbor queries for a set $S$ of point sites in a static simple polygon $P$. Our data structure allows us to insert a new site in $S$, delete a site from $S$,…

We revisit the classic #Knapsack problem, which asks to count the Boolean points $(x_1,\dots,x_n)\in\{0,1\}^n$ in a given half-space $\sum_{i=1}^nW_ix_i\le T$. This #P-complete problem admits $(1\pm\epsilon)$-approximation. Before this…

The problem of using proximity (similarity or dissimilarity) data for the purpose of "adding a point to a vector diagram" was first studied by J.C. Gower in 1968. Since then, a number of methods -- mostly kernel methods -- have been…

Let $K$ be a compact, centrally-symmetric, strictly-convex region in ${\mathbb R}^3$, which is a semi-algebraic set of constant complexity, i.e. the unit ball of a corresponding metric, denoted as $\|\cdot\|_K$. Let ${\mathcal{K}}$ be a set…

Data streams typically have items of large number of dimensions. We study the fundamental heavy-hitters problem in this setting. Formally, the data stream consists of $d$-dimensional items $x_1,\ldots,x_m \in [n]^d$. A $k$-dimensional…
