Maintaining a maximum bipartite matching online while minimizing recourse/augmentations is a well studied problem, motivated by content delivery, job scheduling, and hashing. A breakthrough result of Bernstein, Holm, and Rotenberg…
The study of combinations of drugs/drug-schedules gained increasing attention in various therapeutic areas recently. In oncology, the aim of phase I combination clinical trial is to find the maximum tolerated combination (MTC). Many…
There has been a long history for studying randomized greedy matching algorithms since the work by Dyer and Frieze~(RSA 1991). We follow this trend and consider the problem formulated in the oblivious setting, in which the algorithm makes…
Many of the challenges facing today's reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms, such as robustness, generalization, transfer, and computational efficiency are closely related to compression. Prior work has convincingly argued why minimizing…
We present prior robust algorithms for a large class of resource allocation problems where requests arrive one-by-one (online), drawn independently from an unknown distribution at every step. We design a single algorithm that, for every…
In online convex optimization (OCO), a decision-maker is confronted with an unknown environment and seeks to play an optimal sequence of decisions on a short time-scale using only past information. Recent advances in second-order OCO…
Algorithm designers typically assume that the input data is correct, and then proceed to find "optimal" or "sub-optimal" solutions using this input data. However this assumption of correct data does not always hold in practice, especially…
We study a fundamental model of online preference aggregation, where an algorithm maintains an ordered list of $n$ elements. An input is a stream of preferred sets $R_1, R_2, \dots, R_t, \dots$. Upon seeing $R_t$ and without knowledge of…
A Random SubMatrix method (RSM) is proposed to calculate the low-rank decomposition of large-scale matrices with known entry percentage \rho. RSM is very fast as the floating-point operations (flops) required are compared favorably with the…

Clustering is a fundamental problem, aiming to partition a set of elements, like agents or data points, into clusters such that elements in the same cluster are closer to each other than to those in other clusters. In this paper, we present…
In the online simple knapsack problem items are presented in an iterative fashion and an algorithm has to decide for each item whether to reject or permanently include it into the knapsack without any knowledge about the rest of the…
