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…
Maximum diversity aims at selecting a diverse set of high-quality objects from a collection, which is a fundamental problem and has a wide range of applications, e.g., in Web search. Diversity under a uniform or partition matroid constraint…
The clustering problem, in its many variants, has numerous applications in operations research and computer science (e.g., in applications in bioinformatics, image processing, social network analysis, etc.). As sizes of data sets have grown…
Given points from an arbitrary metric space and a sequence of point updates sent by an adversary, what is the minimum recourse per update (i.e., the minimum number of changes needed to the set of centers after an update), in order to…
In metric $k$-clustering, we are given as input a set of $n$ points in a general metric space, and we have to pick $k$ centers and cluster the input points around these chosen centers, so as to minimize an appropriate objective function. In…
The classical center based clustering problems such as $k$-means/median/center assume that the optimal clusters satisfy the locality property that the points in the same cluster are close to each other. A number of clustering problems arise…
In this paper, we study the fundamental problems of maintaining the diameter and a $k$-center clustering of a dynamic point set $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, where points may be inserted or deleted over time and the ambient dimension $d$ is not…
In this paper, we consider the \emph{metric $k$-center} problem in the fully dynamic setting, where we are given a metric space $(V,d)$ evolving via a sequence of point insertions and deletions and our task is to maintain a subset $S…
The fair $k$-median problem is one of the important clustering problems. The current best approximation ratio is 4.675 for this problem with 1-fair violation, which was proposed by Bercea et al. [APPROX-RANDOM'2019]. As far as we know,…
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 $\{1, 2, \ldots \Delta\}^d$.…
Given a point set $P \subseteq X$ of size $n$ in a metric space $(X,dist)$ of doubling dimension $d$ and two parameters $k \in N$ and $z \in N$, the $k$-center problem with $z$ outliers asks to return a set $C^\ast \subseteq X$ of $k$…
In this paper we give the first efficient algorithms for the $k$-center problem on dynamic graphs undergoing edge updates. In this problem, the goal is to partition the input into $k$ sets by choosing $k$ centers such that the maximum…
In data summarization we want to choose $k$ prototypes in order to summarize a data set. We study a setting where the data set comprises several demographic groups and we are restricted to choose $k_i$ prototypes belonging to group $i$. A…
We study in this paper the problem of maintaining a solution to $k$-median and $k$-means clustering in a fully dynamic setting. To do so, we present an algorithm to efficiently maintain a coreset, a compressed version of the dataset, that…
In many machine learning tasks, a common approach for dealing with large-scale data is to build a small summary, {\em e.g.,} coreset, that can efficiently represent the original input. However, real-world datasets usually contain outliers…
We propose a simple and efficient clustering method for high-dimensional data with a large number of clusters. Our algorithm achieves high-performance by evaluating distances of datapoints with a subset of the cluster centres. Our…
The $k$-Center problem is one of the most popular clustering problems. After decades of work, the complexity of most of its variants on general metrics is now well understood. Surprisingly, this is not the case for a natural setting that…
Given a set of points in a metric space, the $(k,z)$-clustering problem consists of finding a set of $k$ points called centers, such that the sum of distances raised to the power of $z$ of every data point to its closest center is…
In a recent work, [19] studied the following "fair" variants of classical clustering problems such as $k$-means and $k$-median: given a set of $n$ data points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and a binary type associated to each data point, the goal is to…
We study a clustering problem where the goal is to maximize the coverage of the input points by $k$ chosen centers. Specifically, given a set of $n$ points $P \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, the goal is to pick $k$ centers $C \subseteq…
