We deal with exact algorithms for Bandwidth, a long studied NP-hard problem. For a long time nothing better than the trivial O*(n!) exhaustive search was known. In 2000, Feige an Kilian came up with a O*(10^n)-time algorithm. Recently we…

We study algorithms for solving the problem of constructing a text (long string) from a dictionary (sequence of small strings). The problem has an application in bioinformatics and has a connection with the Sequence assembly method for…

We give an $\mathcal{O}(n \log n)$-time, $\mathcal{O}(n)$-space algorithm for factoring a string into the minimum number of palindromic substrings. That is, given a string $S [1..n]$, in $\mathcal{O}(n \log n)$ time our algorithm returns…

The suffix tree is a very important data structure in string processing, but it suffers from a huge space consumption. In large-scale applications, compressed suffix trees (CSTs) are therefore used instead. A CST consists of three…

Recently, span-based constituency parsing has achieved competitive accuracies with extremely simple models by using bidirectional RNNs to model "spans". However, the minimal span parser of Stern et al (2017a) which holds the current state…

We present the first in-place algorithm for sorting an array of size n that performs, in the worst case, at most O(n log n) element comparisons and O(n) element transports. This solves a long-standing open problem, stated explicitly, e.g.,…

Given a set of strings, the shortest common superstring problem is to find the shortest possible string that contains all the input strings. The problem is NP-hard, but a lot of work has gone into designing approximation algorithms for…

In this paper we consider the problem of computing the longest common abelian factor (LCAF) between two given strings. We present a simple $O(\sigma~ n^2)$ time algorithm, where $n$ is the length of the strings and $\sigma$ is the alphabet…

We propose a novel method for the construction of orthogonal arrays. The algorithm makes use of the Kronecker Product operator in association with unit column vectors to generate new orthogonal arrays from existing orthogonal arrays. The…

We prove that any oblivious algorithm using space $S$ to find the median of a list of $n$ integers from $\{1,...,2n\}$ requires time $\Omega(n \log\log_S n)$. This bound also applies to the problem of determining whether the median is odd…

In this paper, we develop new algorithms for the basic RNA folding problem. Given an RNA sequence that contains $n$ nucleotides, the goal of the problem is to compute a pseudoknot-free secondary structure that maximizes the number of base…

We propose a new O(n)-space implementation of the GKO-Cauchy algorithm for the solution of linear systems with Cauchy-like matrix. Despite its slightly higher computational cost, this new algorithm makes a more efficient use of the…

We study the following substring suffix selection problem: given a substring of a string T of length n, compute its k-th lexicographically smallest suffix. This a natural generalization of the well-known question of computing the maximal…

We begin the study of list-decodable linear regression using batches. In this setting only an $\alpha \in (0,1]$ fraction of the batches are genuine. Each genuine batch contains $\ge n$ i.i.d. samples from a common unknown distribution and…

Let $T$ be a string of length $n$ over an integer alphabet of size $\sigma$. In the word RAM model, $T$ can be represented in $O(n /\log_\sigma n)$ space. We show that a representation of all covers of $T$ can be computed in the optimal…

In this paper we present the first provable approximate nearest-neighbor (ANN) algorithms for Bregman divergences. Our first algorithm processes queries in O(log^d n) time using O(n log^d n) space and only uses general properties of the…

We present a new algorithm for computing motorcycle graphs that runs in O(n^(4/3+e)) time for any e>0, improving on all previously known algorithms. The main application of this result is to computing the straight skeleton of a polygon. It…

Suffix tree (and the closely related suffix array) are fundamental structures capturing all substrings of a given text essentially by storing all its suffixes in the lexicographical order. In some applications, we work with a subset of $b$…

A new method for constructing minimum-redundancy binary prefix codes is described. Our method does not explicitly build a Huffman tree; instead it uses a property of optimal prefix codes to compute the codeword lengths corresponding to the…
