We show how to obtain a fast component-by-component construction algorithm for higher order polynomial lattice rules. Such rules are useful for multivariate quadrature of high-dimensional smooth functions over the unit cube as they achieve…
We present several results about position heaps, a relatively new alternative to suffix trees and suffix arrays. First, we show that, if we limit the maximum length of patterns to be sought, then we can also limit the height of the heap and…
We propose an efficient computational methodology for predicting the synthesizability of high entropy oxides (HEOs) in a large space of possible candidate compounds. HEOs are a growing field with an enormous potential chemical composition…
In this paper, we introduce LOTUS (Layer-Ordered Temporally-Unified Schedules), which is a framework that restructures QAOA from a high-dimensional, chaotic search into a low-dimensional dynamical system. By replacing independent layer-wise…
A class of counting problems ask for the number of regions of a central hyperplane arrangement. By duality, this is the same as counting the vertices of a zonotope. We give several efficient algorithms, based on a linear optimization…
A composite likelihood is a combination of low-dimensional likelihood objects useful in applications where the data have complex structure. Although composite likelihood construction is a crucial aspect influencing both computing and…
Learning to Optimize (L2O), a technique that utilizes machine learning to learn an optimization algorithm automatically from data, has gained arising attention in recent years. A generic L2O approach parameterizes the iterative update rule…

We study stochastic combinatorial optimization problems where the objective is to minimize the expected maximum load (a.k.a.\ the makespan). In this framework, we have a set of $n$ tasks and $m$ resources, where each task $j$ uses some…
Locating arrays (LAs) can be used to detect and identify interaction faults among factors in a component-based system. The optimality and constructions of LAs with a single fault have been investigated extensively under the assumption that…

Feature selection is a process of choosing a subset of relevant features so that the quality of prediction models can be improved. An extensive body of work exists on information-theoretic feature selection, based on maximizing Mutual…
Let $n$ denote the number of elements currently in a data structure. An in-place heap is stored in the first $n$ locations of an array, uses $O(1)$ extra space, and supports the operations: minimum, insert, and extract-min. We introduce an…
We address the problem of optimal routing in overlay networks. An overlay network is constructed by adding new overlay nodes on top of a legacy network. The overlay nodes are capable of implementing any dynamic routing policy, however, the…
Given a point $s$ and a set of $h$ pairwise disjoint polygonal obstacles of totally $n$ vertices in the plane, we present a new algorithm for building an $L_1$ shortest path map of size O(n) in $O(T)$ time and O(n) space such that for any…
Genome assembly is a prominent problem studied in bioinformatics, which computes the source string using a set of its overlapping substrings. Classically, genome assembly uses assembly graphs built using this set of substrings to compute…
In Linear Hashing ($\mathsf{LH}$) with $\beta$ bins on a size $u$ universe ${\mathcal{U}=\{0,1,\ldots, u-1\}}$, items $\{x_1,x_2,\ldots, x_n\}\subset \mathcal{U}$ are placed in bins by the hash function $$x_i\mapsto (ax_i+b)\mod p \mod…
The increase in the rate of data is much higher than the increase in the speed of computers, which results in a heavy emphasis on search algorithms in research literature. Searching an item in ordered list is an efficient operation in data…
