We give efficient algorithms for finding power-sum decomposition of an input polynomial $P(x)= \sum_{i\leq m} p_i(x)^d$ with component $p_i$s. The case of linear $p_i$s is equivalent to the well-studied tensor decomposition problem while…
Given a convex polytope $P$ defined with $n$ vertices in $\mathbb{R}^3$, this paper presents an algorithm to preprocess $P$ to compute routing tables at every vertex of $P$ so that a data packet can be routed on $P$ from any vertex of $P$…
In this paper it is shown how to map a data manifold into a simpler form by progressively discarding small degrees of freedom. This is the key to self-organising data fusion, where the raw data is embedded in a very high-dimensional space…
We show how any PAC learning algorithm that works under the uniform distribution can be transformed, in a blackbox fashion, into one that works under an arbitrary and unknown distribution $\mathcal{D}$. The efficiency of our transformation…
Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane, its unit-disk graph $G(P)$ is a graph with $P$ as its vertex set such that two points of $P$ are connected by an edge if their (Euclidean) distance is at most $1$. We consider several classical…
We introduce new data structures for answering connectivity queries in graphs subject to batched vertex failures. A deterministic structure processes a batch of $d\leq d_{\star}$ failed vertices in $\tilde{O}(d^3)$ time and thereafter…
Thin surfaces, such as the leaves of a plant, pose a significant challenge for implicit surface reconstruction techniques, which typically assume a closed, orientable surface. We show that by approximately interpolating a point cloud of the…
We consider the problem of resolving closely spaced point sources in one dimension from their Fourier data in a bounded domain. Classical subspace methods (e.g., MUSIC algorithm, Matrix Pencil method, etc.) show great superiority in…
A convex partition of a point set P in the plane is a planar partition of the convex hull of P with empty convex polygons or internal faces whose extreme points belong to P. In a convex partition, the union of the internal faces give the…
In this paper, we characterize planar point sets that can be partitioned into disjoint polygons of arbitrarily specified sizes. We provide an algorithm to construct such a partition, if it exists, in polynomial time. We show that this…
Given a collection of points $S \subset \mathbb{R}^N$, which is partitioned into $M$ overlapping subsets $\{S_i\}_{i=1}^M$, and approximate data $\{D_i\}_{i=1}^M$ associated with the subsets, one may seek a consistent merged dataset $D$…
In this paper, we consider the problem of covering a plane region with unit discs. We present an improved upper bound and the first nontrivial lower bound on the number of discs needed for such a covering, depending on the area and…
Optimal recursive decomposition (or DR-planning) is crucial for analyzing, designing, solving or finding realizations of geometric constraint sytems. While the optimal DR-planning problem is NP-hard even for general 2D bar-joint constraint…
Union-Find (or Disjoint-Set Union) is one of the fundamental problems in computer science; it has been well-studied from both theoretical and practical perspectives in the sequential case. Recently, there has been mounting interest in…
In this paper, we consider the problem of choosing disks (that we can think of as corresponding to wireless sensors) so that given a set of input points in the plane, there exists no path between any pair of these points that is not…
We show that the VC-dimension of a graph can be computed in time $n^{\log d+1} d^{O(d)}$, where $d$ is the degeneracy of the input graph. The core idea of our algorithm is a data structure to efficiently query the number of vertices that…
At the extreme energies of the Large Hadron Collider, massive particles can be produced at such high velocities that their hadronic decays are collimated and the resulting jets overlap. Deducing whether the substructure of an observed jet…
Table Detection (TD) is a fundamental task to enable visually rich document understanding, which requires the model to extract information without information loss. However, popular Intersection over Union (IoU) based evaluation metrics and…
When the plane is pie-sliced in $n\leq 4$ parts (with nonempty interior and common vertex at the origin) our main result provides a sufficient condition for any map $L$, that is continuous and piecewise linear relatively to this slicing, to…
Tensors decompositions are a class of tools for analysing datasets of high dimensionality and variety in a natural manner, with the Canonical Polyadic Decomposition (CPD) being a main pillar. While the notion of CPD is closely intertwined…
