We present an algorithm for computing $\epsilon$-coresets for $(k, \ell)$-median clustering of polygonal curves in $\mathbb{R}^d$ under the Fr\'echet distance. This type of clustering is an adaption of Euclidean $k$-median clustering: we…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a simple polygon with $m$ vertices and let $P$ be a set of $n$ points inside $\mathcal{P}$. We prove that there exists, for any $\varepsilon>0$, a set $\mathcal{C} \subset P$ of size $O(1/\varepsilon^2)$ such that the…
Gaussian mixture models (GMMs) are fundamental tools in statistical and data sciences. We study the moments of multivariate Gaussians and GMMs. The $d$-th moment of an $n$-dimensional random variable is a symmetric $d$-way tensor of size…
A Bayesian coreset is a small, weighted subset of data that replaces the full dataset during inference in order to reduce computational cost. However, state of the art methods for tuning coreset weights are expensive, require nontrivial…
When faced with a data set too large to be processed all at once, an obvious solution is to retain only part of it. In practice this takes a wide variety of different forms, and among them "coresets" are especially appealing. A coreset is a…
A coreset of a dataset with $n$ examples and $d$ features is a weighted subset of examples that is sufficient for solving downstream data analytic tasks. Nearly optimal constructions of coresets for least squares and $\ell_p$ linear…
The size of large, geo-located datasets has reached scales where visualization of all data points is inefficient. Random sampling is a method to reduce the size of a dataset, yet it can introduce unwanted errors. We describe a method for…
We suggest efficient and provable methods to compute an approximation for imbalanced point clustering, that is, fitting $k$-centers to a set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, for any $d,k\geq 1$. To this end, we utilize \emph{coresets}, which,…
Fair clustering is a constrained variant of clustering where the goal is to partition a set of colored points, such that the fraction of points of any color in every cluster is more or less equal to the fraction of points of this color in…

We consider the problem of constructing small coresets for $k$-Median in Euclidean spaces. Given a large set of data points $P\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, a coreset is a much smaller set $S\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, so that the $k$-Median costs of…
