Let $k\ge 1$ be an integer, and let $P= (f_1(x), \ldots, f_k(x) )$ be $k$ admissible linear polynomials over the integers, or \textit{the pattern}. We present two algorithms that find all integers $x$ where $\max{ \{f_i(x) \} } \le n$ and…
In the k-mappability problem, we are given a string x of length n and integers m and k, and we are asked to count, for each length-m factor y of x, the number of other factors of length m of x that are at Hamming distance at most k from y.…
We present two quantum interior point methods for semidefinite optimization problems, building on recent advances in quantum linear system algorithms. The first scheme, more similar to a classical solution algorithm, computes an inexact…
In this paper we consider several variants of the pattern matching problem. In particular, we investigate the following problems: 1) Pattern matching with k mismatches; 2) Approximate counting of mismatches; and 3) Pattern matching with…
We present three deterministic parameterized algorithms for well-studied packing and matching problems, namely, Weighted q-Dimensional p-Matching ((q,p)-WDM) and Weighted q-Set p-Packing ((q,p)-WSP). More specifically, we present an…
Beam search is a go-to strategy for decoding neural sequence models. The algorithm can naturally be viewed as a subset optimization problem, albeit one where the corresponding set function does not reflect interactions between candidates.…
We develop a new interior-point method (IPM) for symmetric-cone optimization, a common generalization of linear, second-order-cone, and semidefinite programming. In contrast to classical IPMs, we update iterates with a geodesic of the cone…
An elastic-degenerate (ED) string is a sequence of $n$ sets of strings of total length $N$, which was recently proposed to model a set of similar sequences. The ED string matching (EDSM) problem is to find all occurrences of a pattern of…
Given a pattern $w$ and a text $t$, the speed of a pattern matching algorithm over $t$ with regard to $w$, is the ratio of the length of $t$ to the number of text accesses performed to search $w$ into $t$. We first propose a general method…
We propose an interior point method (IPM) for solving semidefinite programming problems (SDPs). The standard interior point algorithms used to solve SDPs work in the space of positive semidefinite matrices. Contrary to that the proposed…
A degenerate string is a sequence of sets of characters. A generalized degenerate (GD) string extends this notion to the sequence of sets of strings, where strings of the same set are of equal length. Finding an exact match for a pattern…
Prompting methods recently achieve impressive success in few-shot learning. These methods modify input samples with prompt sentence pieces, and decode label tokens to map samples to corresponding labels. However, such a paradigm is very…
The NP-complete Permutation Pattern Matching problem asks whether a permutation P (the pattern) can be matched into a permutation T (the text). A matching is an order-preserving embedding of P into T. In the Generalized Permutation Pattern…
We present a polynomial-time algorithm that discovers all maximal patterns in a point set, $D\subset\mathbb{R}^k$, that are related by transformations in a user-specified class, $F$, of bijections over $\mathbb{R}^k$. We also present a…
An algorithm $M$ is described that solves any well-defined problem $p$ as quickly as the fastest algorithm computing a solution to $p$, save for a factor of 5 and low-order additive terms. $M$ optimally distributes resources between the…
Sequential pattern mining (SPM) has excellent prospects and application spaces and has been widely used in different fields. The non-overlapping SPM, as one of the data mining techniques, has been used to discover patterns that have…
Interior point methods (IPMs) are a common approach for solving linear programs (LPs) with strong theoretical guarantees and solid empirical performance. The time complexity of these methods is dominated by the cost of solving a linear…
We present parallel algorithms for exact and approximate pattern matching with suffix arrays, using a CREW-PRAM with $p$ processors. Given a static text of length $n$, we first show how to compute the suffix array interval of a given…
In this letter, we first construct a counter example to show that for any given positive integer $K\geq 2$ and for any $\frac{1}{\sqrt{K+1}}\leq t<1$, there always exist a $K-$sparse $\x$ and a matrix $\A$ with the restricted isometry…
In this paper, we propose a new indexing structure for parameterized strings which we call PLSTs, by generalizing linear-size suffix tries for ordinary strings. Two parameterized strings are said to match if there is a bijection on the…
