The metric sketching problem is defined as follows. Given a metric on $n$ points, and $\epsilon>0$, we wish to produce a small size data structure (sketch) that, given any pair of point indices, recovers the distance between the points up…

Despite many applications, dimensionality reduction in the $\ell_1$-norm is much less understood than in the Euclidean norm. We give two new oblivious dimensionality reduction techniques for the $\ell_1$-norm which improve exponentially…

For a set $X$ of $N$ points in $\mathbb{R}^D$, the Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma provides random linear maps that approximately preserve all pairwise distances in $X$ -- up to multiplicative error $(1\pm \epsilon)$ with high probability --…
In the recent paper [Jin, Kolda & Ward, arXiv:1909.04801], it is proved that the Kronecker fast Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform (KFJLT) is, in fact, a Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform, which had previously only been conjectured. In this…

Emerging Learned image Compression (LC) achieves significant improvements in coding efficiency by end-to-end training of neural networks for compression. An important benefit of this approach over traditional codecs is that any optimization…
We devise a new embedding technique, which we call measured descent, based on decomposing a metric space locally, at varying speeds, according to the density of some probability measure. This provides a refined and unified framework for the…
Subsurface datasets inherently possess big data characteristics such as vast volume, diverse features, and high sampling speeds, further compounded by the curse of dimensionality from various physical, engineering, and geological inputs.…
The weighted Euclidean norm $\|x\|_w$ of a vector $x\in \mathbb{R}^d$ with weights $w\in \mathbb{R}^d$ is the Euclidean norm where the contribution of each dimension is scaled by a given weight. Approaches to dimensionality reduction that…
We give two different and simple constructions for dimensionality reduction in $\ell_2$ via linear mappings that are sparse: only an $O(\varepsilon)$-fraction of entries in each column of our embedding matrices are non-zero to achieve…
Consider an m by N matrix Phi with the Restricted Isometry Property of order k and level delta, that is, the norm of any k-sparse vector in R^N is preserved to within a multiplicative factor of 1 +- delta under application of Phi. We show…
We introduce and study the notion of an outer bi-Lipschitz extension of a map between Euclidean spaces. The notion is a natural analogue of the notion of a Lipschitz extension of a Lipschitz map. We show that for every map $f$ there exists…
In many quantization problems, the distortion function is given by the Euclidean metric to measure the distance of a source sample to any given reproduction point of the quantizer. We will in this work regard distortion functions, which are…
