The paper introduces a new technique for compressing Binary Decision Diagrams in those cases where random access is not required. Using this technique, compression and decompression can be done in linear time in the size of the BDD and…
Many emerging computer applications require the processing of large numbers, larger than what a CPU can handle. In fact, the top of the line PCs can only manipulate numbers not longer than 32 bits or 64 bits. This is due to the size of the…
Distributed computing seems to be a natural approach to overcome size limitations of quantum computers in terms of number of qubits. But one lacks an efficient distribution approach to deal systematically with potential algorithms. This…
This paper introduces the Adaptive Base Representation (ABR) Theorem and proposes a novel number system that offers a structured alternative to the binary number system for digital computers. The ABR number system enables each decimal…
Recent advances have demonstrated that $\mathcal{O}(\log M)$ measurements suffice to predict $M$ properties of arbitrarily large quantum many-body systems. However, these remarkable findings assume that the properties to be predicted are…
We construct an explicit distribution $\mathbf{D}$ over $\{0,1\}^N$ that exhibits an essentially optimal separation between adaptive and non-adaptive cell-probe sampling. The distribution can be sampled exactly when each output bit is…
Dual energy cargo inspection systems are sensitive to both the area density and the atomic number of an imaged container due to the $Z$ dependence of photon attenuation. The ability to identify cargo contents by their atomic number enables…
We present an approach to adaptively utilize deep neural networks in order to reduce the evaluation time on new examples without loss of accuracy. Rather than attempting to redesign or approximate existing networks, we propose two schemes…
Many hashing algorithms including minwise hashing (MinHash), one permutation hashing (OPH), and consistent weighted sampling (CWS) generate integers of $B$ bits. With $k$ hashes for each data vector, the storage would be $B\times k$ bits;…
We consider the {\it indexable dictionary} problem, which consists of storing a set $S \subseteq \{0,...,m-1\}$ for some integer $m$, while supporting the operations of $\Rank(x)$, which returns the number of elements in $S$ that are less…
In a recent breakthrough, Paz and Schwartzman (SODA'17) presented a single-pass ($2+\epsilon$)-approximation algorithm for the maximum weight matching problem in the semi-streaming model. Their algorithm uses $O(n\log^2 n)$ bits of space,…
Penalized regression models such as the lasso have been extensively applied to analyzing high-dimensional data sets. However, due to memory limitations, existing R packages like glmnet and ncvreg are not capable of fitting lasso-type models…
One of the open problems in machine learning is whether any set-family of VC-dimension $d$ admits a sample compression scheme of size $O(d)$. In this paper, we study this problem for balls in graphs. For a ball $B=B_r(x)$ of a graph…
In networks, there are often more than one source of capacity. The capacities can be permanently or temporarily owned by the decision maker. Depending on the nature of sources, we identify the permanent capacity, spot market capacity and…
A new gradient-based adaptive sampling method is proposed for design of experiments applications which balances space filling, local refinement, and error minimization objectives while reducing reliance on delicate tuning parameters. High…
Considering a linearly ordered set, we introduce its symmetric version, and endow it with two operations extending supremum and infimum, so as to obtain an algebraic structure close to a commutative ring. We show that imposing symmetry…
We consider the problem of quantitative group testing (QGT), where the goal is to recover a sparse binary vector from aggregate subset-sum queries: each query selects a subset of indices and returns the sum of those entries.…
The partition problem is a well-known basic NP-complete problem. We mainly consider the optimization version of it in this paper. The problem has been investigated from various perspectives for a long time and can be solved efficiently in…
For positive integers $n$ and $m$, consider a multiset of non-empty subsets of $[m]$ such that there is a \textit{unique} partition of these subsets into $n$ partitions of $[m]$. We study the maximum possible size $g(n,m)$ of such a…
