For a set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, the Euclidean $k$-means problems consists of finding $k$ centers such that the sum of distances squared from each data point to its closest center is minimized. Coresets are one the main tools…
The input to the \emph{sets-$k$-means} problem is an integer $k\geq 1$ and a set $\mathcal{P}=\{P_1,\cdots,P_n\}$ of sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$. The goal is to compute a set $C$ of $k$ centers (points) in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that minimizes the sum…
Coreset selection is powerful in reducing computational costs and accelerating data processing for deep learning algorithms. It strives to identify a small subset from large-scale data, so that training only on the subset practically…
Coresets have emerged as a powerful tool to summarize data by selecting a small subset of the original observations while retaining most of its information. This approach has led to significant computational speedups but the performance of…
Given a dataset $V$ of points from some metric space, the popular $k$-center problem requires to identify a subset of $k$ points (centers) in $V$ minimizing the maximum distance of any point of $V$ from its closest center. The \emph{robust}…
We study fair clustering problems in a setting where distance information is obtained from two sources: a strong oracle providing exact distances, but at a high cost, and a weak oracle providing potentially inaccurate distance estimates at…
Coresets are one of the central methods to facilitate the analysis of large data sets. We continue a recent line of research applying the theory of coresets to logistic regression. First, we show a negative result, namely, that no strongly…
With input sizes becoming massive, coresets -- small yet representative summary of the input -- are relevant more than ever. A weighted set $C_w$ that is a subset of the input is an $\varepsilon$-coreset if the cost of any feasible solution…
We study fair clustering problems as proposed by Chierichetti et al. (NIPS 2017). Here, points have a sensitive attribute and all clusters in the solution are required to be balanced with respect to it (to counteract any form of…
Center-based clustering techniques are fundamental in some areas of machine learning such as data summarization. Generic $k$-center algorithms can produce biased cluster representatives so there has been a recent interest in fair $k$-center…
Many quantum algorithms for machine learning require access to classical data in superposition. However, for many natural data sets and algorithms, the overhead required to load the data set in superposition can erase any potential quantum…

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…
Diversity maximization is a fundamental problem in web search and data mining. For a given dataset $S$ of $n$ elements, the problem requires to determine a subset of $S$ containing $k\ll n$ "representatives" which minimize some diversity…
In discrete k-center and k-median clustering, we are given a set of points P in a metric space M, and the task is to output a set C \subseteq ? P, |C| = k, such that the cost of clustering P using C is as small as possible. For k-center,…
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…
