Byte-Pair Encoding (BPE) is a widely used method for subword tokenization, with origins in grammar-based text compression. It is employed in a variety of language processing tasks such as machine translation or large language model (LLM)…
Let C: {0,1}^n -> {0,1}^m be a code encoding an n-bit string into an m-bit string. Such a code is called a (q, c, e) smooth code if there exists a decoding algorithm which while decoding any bit of the input, makes at most q probes on the…
In the Bin Packing problem one is given $n$ items with weights $w_1,\ldots,w_n$ and $m$ bins with capacities $c_1,\ldots,c_m$. The goal is to find a partition of the items into sets $S_1,\ldots,S_m$ such that $w(S_j) \leq c_j$ for every bin…

Consider a sequence $X^n$ of length $n$ emitted by a Discrete Memoryless Source (DMS) with unknown distribution $p_X$. The objective is to construct a lossless source code that maps $X^n$ to a sequence $\widehat{Y}^m$ of length $m$ that is…
Canonical Polyadic (or CANDECOMP/PARAFAC, CP) decompositions (CPD) are widely applied to analyze high order tensors. Existing CPD methods use alternating least square (ALS) iterations and hence need to unfold tensors to each of the $N$…
We show that if DTIME[2^{O(n)}] is not included in DSPACE[2^{o(n)}], then, for every set B in PSPACE, all strings x in B of length n can be represented by a string compressed(x) of length at most log (|B^{=n}|) + O(log n), such that a…

Lossy compression algorithms aim to compactly encode images in a way which enables to restore them with minimal error. We show that a key limitation of existing algorithms is that they rely on error measures that are extremely sensitive to…
