We address the subset selection problem for matrices, where the goal is to select a subset of $k$ columns from a "short-and-fat" matrix $X \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$, such that the pseudoinverse of the sampled submatrix has as small…

This paper defines a generalized column subset selection problem which is concerned with the selection of a few columns from a source matrix A that best approximate the span of a target matrix B. The paper then proposes a fast greedy…

Diversity maximization is a fundamental problem with wide applications in data summarization, web search, and recommender systems. Given a set $X$ of $n$ elements, it asks to select a subset $S$ of $k \ll n$ elements with maximum…

We consider the $k$-means clustering problem in the dynamic streaming setting, where points from a discrete Euclidean space $\{1, 2, \ldots, \Delta\}^d$ can be dynamically inserted to or deleted from the dataset. For this problem, we…

Big data problems frequently require processing datasets in a streaming fashion, either because all data are available at once but collectively are larger than available memory or because the data intrinsically arrive one data point at a…

We study low-delay error correction codes for streaming recovery over a class of packet-erasure channels that introduce both burst-erasures and isolated erasures. We propose a simple, yet effective class of codes whose parameters can be…

We consider a variety of criteria for selecting k representative columns from a real mxn matrix A, when sufficiently few columns are required, i.e., 1<= k<= min{rank(A), m/3}. The criteria include the following optimization problems:…

We present a new approach for finding matchings in dense graphs by building on Szemer\'edi's celebrated Regularity Lemma. This allows us to obtain non-trivial albeit slight improvements over longstanding bounds for matchings in streaming…

We characterize the streaming space complexity of every symmetric norm $l$ (a norm on $\mathbb{R}^n$ invariant under sign-flips and coordinate-permutations), by relating this space complexity to the measure-concentration characteristics of…

We consider the problem of computing distance between a pattern of length $n$ and all $n$-length subwords of a text in the streaming model. In the streaming setting, only the Hamming distance ($L_0$) has been studied. It is known that…
