A common approach for compressing NLP networks is to encode the embedding layer as a matrix $A\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times d}$, compute its rank-$j$ approximation $A_j$ via SVD, and then factor $A_j$ into a pair of matrices that correspond to…
We present a novel coreset construction algorithm for solving classification tasks using Support Vector Machines (SVMs) in a computationally efficient manner. A coreset is a weighted subset of the original data points that provably…
The use of brain images as markers for diseases or behavioral differences is challenged by the small effects size and the ensuing lack of power, an issue that has incited researchers to rely more systematically on large cohorts. Coupled…
Correlation clustering is perhaps the most natural formulation of clustering. Given $n$ objects and a pairwise similarity measure, the goal is to cluster the objects so that, to the best possible extent, similar objects are put in the same…
We introduce the $(p,q)$-Fair Clustering problem. In this problem, we are given a set of points $P$ and a collection of different weight functions $W$. We would like to find a clustering which minimizes the $\ell_q$-norm of the vector over…
We initiate the study of the following general clustering problem. We seek to partition a given set $P$ of data points into $k$ clusters by finding a set $X$ of $k$ centers and assigning each data point to one of the centers. The cost of a…
The diameter $k$-clustering problem is the problem of partitioning a finite subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ into $k$ subsets called clusters such that the maximum diameter of the clusters is minimized. One early clustering algorithm that computes…
We investigate coresets - succinct, small summaries of large data sets - so that solutions found on the summary are provably competitive with solution found on the full data set. We provide an overview over the state-of-the-art in coreset…
An effective technique for solving optimization problems over massive data sets is to partition the data into smaller pieces, solve the problem on each piece and compute a representative solution from it, and finally obtain a solution…
We consider the problem of clustering a set of high-dimensional data points into sets of low-dimensional linear subspaces. The number of subspaces, their dimensions, and their orientations are unknown. We propose a simple and low-complexity…
We study subtrajectory clustering under the Fr\'echet distance. Given one or more trajectories, the task is to split the trajectories into several parts, such that the parts have a good clustering structure. We approach this problem via a…
The most widely used internal measure for clustering evaluation is the silhouette coefficient, whose naive computation requires a quadratic number of distance calculations, which is clearly unfeasible for massive datasets. Surprisingly,…
$\renewcommand{\Re}{\mathbb{R}}$Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in $\Re^d$, consider the problem of computing $k$ subsets of $P$ that form clusters that are well-separated from each other, and each of them is large (cardinality wise). We…
Given a collection of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, the goal of the $(k,z)$-clustering problem is to find a subset of $k$ "centers" that minimizes the sum of the $z$-th powers of the Euclidean distance of each point to the closest center.…
In a recent work, [19] studied the following "fair" variants of classical clustering problems such as $k$-means and $k$-median: given a set of $n$ data points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and a binary type associated to each data point, the goal is to…
Clustering problems have numerous applications and are becoming more challenging as the size of the data increases. In this paper, we consider designing clustering algorithms that can be used in MapReduce, the most popular programming…
