We consider the problem of preprocessing two strings $S$ and $T$, of lengths $m$ and $n$, respectively, in order to be able to efficiently answer the following queries: Given positions $i,j$ in $S$ and positions $a,b$ in $T$, return the…
We present data streaming algorithms for the $k$-median problem in high-dimensional dynamic geometric data streams, i.e. streams allowing both insertions and deletions of points from a discrete Euclidean space $\{1, 2, \ldots \Delta\}^d$.…
We explore optimization options for the Stream-K algorithm, a work-centric parallelization of matrix multiplication (GEMM). In our study, we investigated differences between the theoretical and practical implementations, particularly noting…
A semi-streaming algorithm in dynamic graph streams processes any $n$-vertex graph by making one or multiple passes over a stream of insertions and deletions to edges of the graph and using $O(n \cdot \mbox{polylog}(n))$ space.…
An important challenge in the streaming model is to maintain small-space approximations of entrywise functions performed on a matrix that is generated by the outer product of two vectors given as a stream. In other works, streams typically…
Given a finite set of points $P \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, we would like to find a small subset $S \subseteq P$ such that the convex hull of $S$ approximately contains $P$. More formally, every point in $P$ is within distance $\epsilon$ from…
We study the problem of extracting a small subset of representative items from a large data stream. In many data mining and machine learning applications such as social network analysis and recommender systems, this problem can be…
We study the maximum matching problem in the random-order semi-streaming setting. In this problem, the edges of an arbitrary $n$-vertex graph $G=(V, E)$ arrive in a stream one by one and in a random order. The goal is to have a single pass…
We consider the following model for sampling pairs of strings: $s_1$ is a uniformly random bitstring of length $n$, and $s_2$ is the bitstring arrived at by applying substitutions, insertions, and deletions to each bit of $s_1$ with some…
Given a text $T$ of length $n$ and a pattern $P$ of length $m$, the approximate pattern matching problem asks for computation of a particular \emph{distance} function between $P$ and every $m$-substring of $T$. We consider a…
We explore clustering problems in the streaming sliding window model in both general metric spaces and Euclidean space. We present the first polylogarithmic space $O(1)$-approximation to the metric $k$-median and metric $k$-means problems…
The most fundamental problem considered in algorithms for text processing is pattern matching: given a pattern $p$ of length $m$ and a text $t$ of length $n$, does $p$ occur in $t$? Multiple versions of this basic question have been…
Stimulated by practical applications arising from viral marketing. This paper investigates a novel Budgeted $k$-Submodular Maximization problem defined as follows: Given a finite set $V$, a budget $B$ and a $k$-submodular function $f:…
We present a set of parallel algorithms for computing exact k-nearest neighbors in low dimensions. Many k-nearest neighbor algorithms use either a kd-tree or the Morton ordering of the point set; our algorithms combine these approaches…

Analyzing massive data sets has been one of the key motivations for studying streaming algorithms. In recent years, there has been significant progress in analysing distributions in a streaming setting, but the progress on graph problems…
Many streaming algorithms provide only a high-probability relative approximation. These two relaxations, of allowing approximation and randomization, seem necessary -- for many streaming problems, both relaxations must be employed…
We introduce a new computational model for data streams: asymptotically exact streaming algorithms. These algorithms have an approximation ratio that tends to one as the length of the stream goes to infinity while the memory used by the…
