Theorems relating permutations with objects in other fields of mathematics are often stated in terms of avoided patterns. Examples include various classes of Schubert varieties from algebraic geometry (Billey and Abe 2013), commuting…
The knapsack problem is one of the classical problems in combinatorial optimization: Given a set of items, each specified by its size and profit, the goal is to find a maximum profit packing into a knapsack of bounded capacity. In the…
Graded posets frequently arise throughout combinatorics, where it is natural to try to count the number of elements of a fixed rank. These counting problems are often $\#\textbf{P}$-complete, so we consider approximation algorithms for…
We study the problem of list-decodable Gaussian mean estimation and the related problem of learning mixtures of separated spherical Gaussians. We develop a set of techniques that yield new efficient algorithms with significantly improved…
A novel integer sorting technique was proposed replacing bucket sort, distribution counting sort and address calculation sort family of algorithms which requires only constant amount of additional memory. The technique was inspired from one…
In this paper, we describe randomized Shellsort--a simple, randomized, data-oblivious version of the Shellsort algorithm that always runs in O(n log n) time and, as we show, succeeds in sorting any given input permutation with very high…
This paper explores generalised probabilistic modelling and uncertainty estimation in comparative LLM-as-a-judge frameworks. We show that existing Product-of-Experts methods are specific cases of a broader framework, enabling diverse…
We study sorting in the evolving data model, introduced by [AKMU11], where the true total order changes while the sorting algorithm is processing the input. More precisely, each comparison operation of the algorithm is followed by a…
Modern comparison sorts like quicksort suffer from performance inconsistencies due to suboptimal pivot selection, leading to $(O(N^2))$ worst-case complexity, while in-place merge sort variants face challenges with data movement overhead.…
The Algorithm Selection Problem is concerned with selecting the best algorithm to solve a given problem on a case-by-case basis. It has become especially relevant in the last decade, as researchers are increasingly investigating how to…
Spaces with locally varying scale of measurement, like multidimensional structures with differently scaled dimensions, are pretty common in statistics and machine learning. Nevertheless, it is still understood as an open question how to…
Crowdsourcing systems aggregate decisions of many people to help users quickly identify high-quality options, such as the best answers to questions or interesting news stories. A long-standing issue in crowdsourcing is how option quality…
Stacked generalization is a general method of using a high-level model to combine lower-level models to achieve greater predictive accuracy. In this paper we address two crucial issues which have been considered to be a `black art' in…
The present letter proposes a modification in the well known Grover's search algorithm, which searches a database of $N$ unsorted items in $O(\sqrt{N/M})$ steps, where $M$ represents the number of solutions to the search problem.…
In this work, we aim to create a completely online algorithmic framework for prediction with expert advice that is translation-free and scale-free of the expert losses. Our goal is to create a generalized algorithm that is suitable for use…
We contribute the first randomized algorithm that is an integration of arbitrarily many deterministic algorithms for the fully online multiprocessor scheduling with testing problem. When there are two machines, we show that with two…
Recent literature has advocated the use of randomized methods for accelerating the solution of various matrix problems arising throughout data science and computational science. One popular strategy for leveraging randomization is to use it…
We study the "set parameterized matching" problem, a generalization of the classical parameterized matching problem introduced by Baker. In set parameterized matching, both the pattern and text are sequences where each position contains a…
We revisit the problem of general identifiability originally introduced in [Lee et al., 2019] for causal inference and note that it is necessary to add positivity assumption of observational distribution to the original definition of the…
The problem of sorting with priced information was introduced by [Charikar, Fagin, Guruswami, Kleinberg, Raghavan, Sahai (CFGKRS), STOC 2000]. In this setting, different comparisons have different (potentially infinite) costs. The goal is…
