In this paper, we propose a new construction of constantdegree expanders motivated by their application in P2P overlay networks and in particular in the design of robust trees overlay. Our key result can be stated as follows. Consider a…
In Energy Management System (EMS) applications and many other off-line planning and study tools, one-line diagram (OLND) of the whole system and stations is a straightforward view for planners and operators to design, monitor, analyze, and…
Structured pruning is an effective compression technique to reduce the computation of neural networks, which is usually achieved by adding perturbations to reduce network parameters at the cost of slightly increasing training loss. A more…
In the Steiner Point Removal (SPR) problem, we are given a weighted graph $G=(V,E)$ and a set of terminals $K\subset V$ of size $k$. The objective is to find a minor $M$ of $G$ with only the terminals as its vertex set, such that distances…
Improving on the Voronoi cell based techniques of Micciancio and Voulgaris (SIAM J. Comp. 13), and Sommer, Feder and Shalvi (SIAM J. Disc. Math. 09), we give a Las Vegas $\tilde{O}(2^n)$ expected time and space algorithm for CVPP (the…
In the Hausdorff Voronoi diagram of a family of \emph{clusters of points} in the plane, the distance between a point $t$ and a cluster $P$ is measured as the maximum distance between $t$ and any point in $P$, and the diagram is defined in a…
We consider the problem of uniformly generating a spanning tree, of a connected undirected graph. This process is useful to compute statistics, namely for phylogenetic trees. We describe a Markov chain for producing these trees. For cycle…
We study the Voronoi Diagram of Rotating Rays, a Voronoi structure where the input sites are rays and the distance function between a point and a site/ray, is the counterclockwise angular distance. This novel Voronoi diagram is motivated by…
In the Euclidean Steiner Tree problem, we are given as input a set of points (called terminals) in the $\ell_2$-metric space and the goal is to find the minimum-cost tree connecting them. Additional points (called Steiner points) from the…
We present online algorithms for directed spanners and Steiner forests. These problems fall under the unifying framework of online covering linear programming formulations, developed by Buchbinder and Naor (MOR, 34, 2009), based on…
Successful detection of Out-of-Distribution (OoD) data is becoming increasingly important to ensure safe deployment of neural networks. One of the main challenges in OoD detection is that neural networks output overconfident predictions on…
We propose a novel tree-like curvilinear structure reconstruction algorithm based on supervised learning and graph theory. In this work we analyze image patches to obtain the local major orientations and the rankings that correspond to the…
We give an algorithm that for an input n-vertex graph G and integer k>0, in time 2^[O(k)]n either outputs that the treewidth of G is larger than k, or gives a tree decomposition of G of width at most 5k+4. This is the first algorithm…
We present singly-exponential quantum algorithms for the One-Sided Crossing Minimization (OSCM) problem. Given an $n$-vertex bipartite graph $G=(U,V,E\subseteq U \times V)$, a $2$-level drawing $(\pi_U,\pi_V)$ of $G$ is described by a…
Surprisingly, the order-$k$ Voronoi diagram of line segments had received no attention in the computational-geometry literature. It illustrates properties surprisingly different from its counterpart for points; for example, a single…
Consider two $D$-dimensional data vectors (e.g., embeddings): $u, v$. In many embedding-based retrieval (EBR) applications where the vectors are generated from trained models, $D=256\sim 1024$ are common. In this paper, OPORP (one…
The Euclidean Steiner tree problem seeks the min-cost network to connect a collection of target locations, and it underlies many applications of wireless networks. In this paper, we present a study on solving the Euclidean Steiner tree…
We consider geometric problems on planar $n^2$-point sets in the congested clique model. Initially, each node in the $n$-clique network holds a batch of $n$ distinct points in the Euclidean plane given by $O(\log n)$-bit coordinates. In…
Let $P$ and $S$ be two disjoint sets of $n$ and $m$ points in the plane, respectively. We consider the problem of computing a Steiner tree whose Steiner vertices belong to $S$, in which each point of $P$ is a leaf, and whose longest edge…
Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and an input line $\gamma$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$, we present an algorithm that runs in optimal $\Theta(n\log n)$ time and $\Theta(n)$ space to solve a restricted version of the $1$-Steiner tree…
