Cross-encoder models, which jointly encode and score a query-item pair, are prohibitively expensive for direct k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) search. Consequently, k-NN search typically employs a fast approximate retrieval (e.g. using BM25 or…
We describe an adaptive greedy algorithm for Thiele continued-fraction approximation of a function defined on a continuum domain in the complex plane. The algorithm iteratively selects interpolation nodes from an adaptively refined set of…
The paper investigates the complex gradient descent method (CGD) for the best rational approximation of a given order to a function in the Hardy space on the unit disk. It is equivalent to finding the best Blaschke form with free poles. The…
As first-order optimization methods become the method of choice for solving large-scale optimization problems, optimization solvers based on first-order algorithms are being built. Such general-purpose solvers must robustly detect…
In the Cluster Vertex Deletion problem the input is a graph $G$ and an integer $k$. The goal is to decide whether there is a set of vertices $S$ of size at most $k$ such that the deletion of the vertices of $S$ from $G$ results a graph in…
One of the most promising paths towards large scale fault tolerant quantum computation is the use of quantum error correcting stabilizer codes. Just like every other quantum circuit, these codes must be compiled to hardware in a way to…
More than 120 algorithms have been developed for exact string matching within the last 40 years. We show by experiments that the \naive{} algorithm exploiting SIMD instructions of modern CPUs (with symbols compared in a special order) is…
Gradient descent is an important class of iterative algorithms for minimizing convex functions. Classically, gradient descent has been a sequential and synchronous process. Distributed and asynchronous variants of gradient descent have been…
In this paper, we consider the \emph{metric $k$-center} problem in the fully dynamic setting, where we are given a metric space $(V,d)$ evolving via a sequence of point insertions and deletions and our task is to maintain a subset $S…
We formulate the problem of clock skew compensation as a special case of the integer linear scaling in the form of iD/A and propose two algorithms -- i.e., the multiplicative decomposition of integer division (MDID) and the additive…
We study the utility and limitations of using $k$-uniform hypergraphs $H = ([n], E)$ ($n \ge \mathrm{poly}(k)$) in the context of error reduction for randomized algorithms for decision problems with one- or two-sided error. Our error…
Binary search finds a given element in a sorted array with an optimal number of $\log n$ queries. However, binary search fails even when the array is only slightly disordered or access to its elements is subject to errors. We study the…
It is known that greedy methods perform well for maximizing monotone submodular functions. At the same time, such methods perform poorly in the face of non-monotonicity. In this paper, we show - arguably, surprisingly - that invoking the…
An efficient decoding algorithm named `divided decoder' is proposed in this paper. Divided decoding can be combined with any decoder using QR-decomposition and offers different pairs of performance and complexity. Divided decoding provides…
The Cage Problem requires for a given pair $k \geq 3, g \geq 3$ of integers the determination of the order of a smallest $k$-regular graph of girth $g$. We address a more general version of this problem and look for the $(k,g)$-spectrum of…
This paper presents a parallel random-search method for reducing additive complexity in fast matrix multiplication algorithms with ternary coefficients $\{-1,0,1\}$. The approach replaces expensive exact evaluation with fast heuristic…

The "classical" (weak) greedy algorithm is widely used within model order reduction in order to compute a reduced basis in the offline training phase: An a posteriori error estimator is maximized and the snapshot corresponding to the…
The phase retrieval problem is a fundamental problem in many fields, which is appealing for investigation. It is to recover the signal vector $\tilde{x}\in\mathbb{C}^d$ from a set of $N$ measurements $b_n=|f^*_n\tilde{x}|^2,\ n=1,\cdots,…
