The Balanced Connected Subgraph problem (BCS) was recently introduced by Bhore et al. (CALDAM 2019). In this problem, we are given a graph $G$ whose vertices are colored by red or blue. The goal is to find a maximum connected subgraph of…

We present the first $\mathrm{o}(n)$-space polynomial-time algorithm for computing the length of a longest common subsequence. Given two strings of length $n$, the algorithm runs in $\mathrm{O}(n^{3})$ time with $\mathrm{O}\left(\frac{n…

In this paper, we propose two methods of calculating theoretically maximal metamer mismatch volumes. Unlike prior art techniques, our methods do not make any assumptions on the shape of spectra on the boundary of the mismatch volumes. Both…

Given a finite set of red and blue points in $\Rspace^d$, the MST-ratio is defined as the total length of the Euclidean minimum spanning trees of the red points and the blue points, divided by the length of the Euclidean minimum spanning…

In the Equal-Subset-Sum problem, we are given a set $S$ of $n$ integers and the problem is to decide if there exist two disjoint nonempty subsets $A,B \subseteq S$, whose elements sum up to the same value. The problem is NP-complete. The…

Biclustering algorithms partition data and covariates simultaneously, providing new insights in several domains, such as analyzing gene expression to discover new biological functions. This paper develops a new model-free biclustering…

We define a new framework that unifies the filtration and mapper approaches from TDA, and present efficient algorithms to compute it. Termed the box filtration of a PCD, we grow boxes (hyperrectangles) that are not necessarily centered at…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in an axis-parallel rectangle $B$ in the plane. We present an $O(n\alpha(n)\log^4 n)$-time algorithm to preprocess $P$ into a data structure of size $O(n\alpha(n)\log^3 n)$, such that, given a query point $q$,…

Klee's Measure Problem (KMP) asks for the volume of the union of n axis-aligned boxes in d-space. Omitting logarithmic factors, the best algorithm has runtime O*(n^{d/2}) [Overmars,Yap'91]. There are faster algorithms known for several…

We study the optimization version of the equal cardinality set partition problem (where the absolute difference between the equal sized partitions' sums are minimized). While this problem is NP-hard and requires exponential complexity to…

This paper shows a polynomial-time algorithm, that given a general matroid $M_1 = (X, \mathcal{I}_1)$ and $k-1$ partition matroids $ M_2, \ldots, M_k$, produces a coloring of the intersection $M = \cap_{i=1}^k M_i$ using at most…

Partitioning and grouping of similar objects plays a fundamental role in image segmentation and in clustering problems. In such problems a typical goal is to group together similar objects, or pixels in the case of image processing. At the…

An annulus is, informally, a ring-shaped region, often described by two concentric circles. The maximum-width empty annulus problem asks to find an annulus of a certain shape with the maximum possible width that avoids a given set of $n$…

Let $S$ be a 2-colored (red and blue) set of $n$ points in the plane. A subset $I$ of $S$ is an island if there exits a convex set $C$ such that $I=C\cap S$. The discrepancy of an island is the absolute value of the number of red minus the…

In-place associative integer sorting technique was proposed for integer lists which requires only constant amount of additional memory replacing bucket sort, distribution counting sort and address calculation sort family of algorithms.…

We are given $N$ autonomous mobile robots inside a bounded region. The robots are opaque which means that three collinear robots are unable to see each other as one of the robots acts as an obstruction for the other two. They operate in…

We study the problem of multiway number partition optimization, which has a myriad of applications in the decision, learning and optimization literature. Even though the original multiway partitioning problem is NP-hard and requires…
