Given a dataset $S$ of points in $\mathbb{R}^2$, the range closest-pair (RCP) problem aims to preprocess $S$ into a data structure such that when a query range $X$ is specified, the closest-pair in $S \cap X$ can be reported efficiently.…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ weighted points in the plane and let $R$ be a query range in the plane. In the range closest pair problem, we want to report the closest pair in the set $R \cap S$. In the range minimum weight problem, we want to…
In the range closest pair problem, we want to construct a data structure storing a set $S$ of $n$ points in the plane, such that for any axes-parallel query rectangle $R$, the closest pair in the set $R \cap S$ can be reported. The…
We consider a range-search variant of the closest-pair problem. Let $\varGamma$ be a fixed shape in the plane. We are interested in storing a given set of $n$ points in the plane in some data structure such that for any specified translate…
Range-aggregate query is an important type of queries with numerous applications. It aims to obtain some structural information (defined by an aggregate function $F(\cdot)$) of the points (from a point set $P$) inside a given query range…
We study the approximate range searching for three variants of the clustering problem with a set $P$ of $n$ points in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space and axis-parallel rectangular range queries: the $k$-median, $k$-means, and $k$-center…
The nearest neighbor problem is defined as follows: Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in some metric space $(X,D)$, build a data structure that, given any point $q$, returns a point in $P$ that is closest to $q$ (its "nearest neighbor" in $P$).…
Range reporting is a classical problem in computational geometry. A (rectangular) reporting data structure stores a point set $P$, such that, given a (rectangular) query region $\Delta$, it returns all points in $P \cap \Delta$. A variety…
In the classical best approximation pair (BAP) problem, one is given two nonempty, closed, convex and disjoint subsets in a finite- or an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, and the goal is to find a pair of points, each from each subset,…
We study range-searching for colored objects, where one has to count (approximately) the number of colors present in a query range. The problems studied mostly involve orthogonal range-searching in two and three dimensions, and the dual…
Approximate nearest-neighbor search is a fundamental algorithmic problem that continues to inspire study due its essential role in numerous contexts. In contrast to most prior work, which has focused on point sets, we consider…
Sparse Subspace Clustering (SSC) is one of the most popular methods for clustering data points into their underlying subspaces. However, SSC may suffer from heavy computational burden. Orthogonal Matching Pursuit applied on SSC accelerates…
A Comment by Morse and Charbonneau shows that our recent analytical solution to the random close packing (RCP) problem is in good agreement with packings data in dimensions $d<6$ but deviates from the data for $d\geq6$. In this Reply we…
In a geometric $k$-clustering problem the goal is to partition a set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ into $k$ subsets such that a certain cost function of the clustering is minimized. We present data structures for orthogonal range-clustering…

We study the following range searching problem in high-dimensional Euclidean spaces: given a finite set $P\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, where each $p\in P$ is assigned a weight $w_p$, and radius $r>0$, we need to preprocess $P$ into a data…
The best pair problem aims to find a pair of points that minimize the distance between two disjoint sets. In this paper, we formulate the classical robust principal component analysis (RPCA) as the best pair; which was not considered…
