We propose an algorithm for identifying vertices from three dimensional (3D) meshes that are most important for a geometric shape creation. Extracting such a set of vertices from a 3D mesh is important in applications such as digital…
By combining well-known techniques from both noncommutative algebra and computational commutative algebra, we observe that an algorithmic approach can be applied to the study of irreducible representations of finitely presented algebras. In…
We introduce a randomized algorithm for computing the minimal-norm solution to an underdetermined system of linear equations. Given an arbitrary full-rank m x n matrix A with m<n, any m x 1 vector b, and any positive real number epsilon…
Given a subset of $X\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{n}$ we can associate with every point $x\in \mathbb{R}^{n}$ a vector space $V$ of maximal dimension with the property that for some ball centered at $x$, the subset $X$ coincides inside the ball…
We study algorithms for the sliding-window model, an important variant of the data-stream model, in which the goal is to compute some function of a fixed-length suffix of the stream. We extend the smooth-histogram framework of Braverman and…
We study four-cycle counting in arbitrary order graph streams. We present a 3-pass algorithm for $(1+\varepsilon)$-approximating the number of four-cycles using $\widetilde{O}(m/\sqrt{T})$ space, where $m$ is the number of edges and $T$ the…
One of the landmarks in approximation algorithms is the $O(\sqrt{\log n})$-approximation algorithm for the Uniform Sparsest Cut problem by Arora, Rao and Vazirani from 2004. The algorithm is based on a semidefinite program that finds an…
Probabilistic automata are an extension of nondeterministic finite automata in which transitions are annotated with probabilities. Despite its simplicity, this model is very expressive and many of the associated algorithmic questions are…
The nature of statistics, statistical mechanics and consequently the thermodynamics of stochastic systems is largely determined by how the number of states $W(N)$ depends on the size $N$ of the system. Here we propose a scaling expansion of…
We develop a stochastic approximation version of the classical Kaczmarz algorithm that is incremental in nature and takes as input noisy real time data. Our analysis shows that with probability one it mimics the behavior of the original…
We study identification of stochastic Wiener dynamic systems using so-called indirect inference. The main idea is to first fit an auxiliary model to the observed data and then in a second step, often by simulation, fit a more structured…
The ODE method has been a workhorse for algorithm design and analysis since the introduction of the stochastic approximation. It is now understood that convergence theory amounts to establishing robustness of Euler approximations for ODEs,…
Orthogonal systems in $\mathrm{L}_2(\mathbb{R})$, once implemented in spectral methods, enjoy a number of important advantages if their differentiation matrix is skew-symmetric and highly structured. Such systems, where the differentiation…
In this paper, we consider an unconstrained (-1,1)-quadratic fractional optimization in the following form: $\min_{x\in\{-1,1\}^n}~(x^TAx+\alpha)/(x^TBx+\beta)$, where $A$ and $B$, given by their nonzero eigenvalues and associated…
In this paper we combine determinization and state reduction methods into two-in-one algorithms that simultaneously perform determinization and state reduction. These algorithms perform better than all previous determinization algorithms…
Using appropriate notation systems for proofs, cut-reduction can often be rendered feasible on these notations, and explicit bounds can be given. Developing a suitable notation system for Bounded Arithmetic, and applying these bounds, all…
Numerical integration (NI) packages commonly used in scientific research are limited to returning the value of a definite integral at the upper integration limit, also commonly referred to as numerical quadrature. These quadrature…
Identification of fractional order systems is considered from an algebraic point of view. It allows for a simultaneous estimation of model parameters and fractional (or integer) orders from input and output data. It is exact in that no…
Subadditive set functions play a pivotal role in computational economics (especially in combinatorial auctions), combinatorial optimization or artificial intelligence applications such as interpretable machine learning. However, specifying…
In this paper, as a new notion, we define a transitive system to be a set system $(V, {\mathcal C}\subseteq 2^V)$ on a finite set $V$ of elements such that every three sets $X,Y,Z\in{\mathcal C}$ with $Z\subseteq X\cap Y$ implies $X\cup…
