An effective and efficient encoding of the source code of a computer program is critical to the success of sequence-to-sequence deep neural network models for tasks in computer program comprehension, such as automated code summarization and…

An ancestry labeling scheme assigns labels (bit strings) to the nodes of rooted trees such that ancestry queries between any two nodes in a tree can be answered merely by looking at their corresponding labels. The quality of an ancestry…

An average-case variant of the $k$-SUM conjecture asserts that finding $k$ numbers that sum to 0 in a list of $r$ random numbers, each of the order $r^k$, cannot be done in much less than $r^{\lceil k/2 \rceil}$ time. On the other hand, in…

We consider labeled $r$-uniform hypertrees having $n \ge r \ge 2$ vertices. The number of hyperedges in such a hypertree is $m = (n - 1)/(r - 1)$. We show that there are exactly $f(n, r) = \frac{(n-1)! n^{m-1}}{(r-1)!^m m!}$ $r$-uniform…

In multi-vector retrieval, both queries and data are represented as sets of high-dimensional vectors, enabling finer-grained semantic matching and improving retrieval quality over single-vector approaches. However, its practical adoption is…

In this paper we propose new solution methods for designing tag sets for use in universal DNA arrays. First, we give integer linear programming formulations for two previous formalizations of the tag set design problem, and show that these…

Initiated by Davis, Nelson, Petersen and Tenner (2018), the enumerative study of pinnacle sets of permutations has attracted a fair amount of attention recently. In this article, we provide a recurrence that can be used to compute…

We consider how to assign labels to any undirected graph with n nodes such that, given the labels of two nodes and no other information regarding the graph, it is possible to determine the distance between the two nodes. The challenge in…

The article describes an attempt to apply an ensemble of binary classifiers to solve the problem of speech assessment in medicine. A dataset was compiled based on quantitative and expert assessments of syllable pronunciation quality.…

We consider the standard message passing model; we assume the system is fully synchronous: all processes start at the same time and time proceeds in synchronised rounds. In each round each vertex can transmit a different message of size…

In-place associative integer sorting technique was proposed for integer lists which requires only constant amount of additional memory replacing bucket sort, distribution counting sort and address calculation sort family of algorithms. The…

Let $k$ and $n$ be positive integers, $n>k$. Define $r(n,k)$ to be the minimum positive value of $$ |\sqrt{a_1} + ... + \sqrt{a_k} - \sqrt{b_1} - >... -\sqrt{b_k} | $$ where $ a_1, a_2, ..., a_k, b_1, b_2, ..., b_k $ are positive integers…

In this paper we introduce a novel method for segmentation that can benefit from general semantics of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Our segmentation proposes visually and semantically coherent image segments. We use binary encoding of…

In most of the network coding problems with $k$ messages, the existence of binary network coding solution over $\mathbb{F}_2$ depends on the existence of adequate sets of $k$-dimensional binary vectors such that each set comprises of…

Let $\widetilde{\alpha}$ be a length-$L$ cyclic sequence of characters from a size-$K$ alphabet $\mathcal{A}$ such that the number of occurrences of any length-$m$ string on $\mathcal{A}$ as a substring of $\widetilde{\alpha}$ is $\lfloor L…

Since Jacobson [FOCS89] initiated the investigation of succinct graph encodings 35 years ago, there has been a long list of results on balancing the generality of the class, the speed, the succinctness of the encoding, and the query…

Batch codes, introduced by Ishai et al. encode a string $x \in \Sigma^{k}$ into an $m$-tuple of strings, called buckets. In this paper we consider multiset batch codes wherein a set of $t$-users wish to access one bit of information each…

Many proofs in discrete mathematics and theoretical computer science are based on the probabilistic method. To prove the existence of a good object, we pick a random object and show that it is bad with low probability. This method is…

A seed in a word is a relaxed version of a period in which the occurrences of the repeating subword may overlap. We show a linear-time algorithm computing a linear-size representation of all the seeds of a word (the number of seeds might be…

A heapable sequence is a sequence of numbers that can be arranged in a "min-heap data structure". Finding a longest heapable subsequence of a given sequence was proposed by Byers, Heeringa, Mitzenmacher, and Zervas (ANALCO 2011) as a…
