Edit distance is an important measure of string similarity. It counts the number of insertions, deletions and substitutions one has to make to a string $x$ to get a string $y$. In this paper we design an almost linear-size sketching scheme…
Semi-supervised clustering is the task of clustering data points into clusters where only a fraction of the points are labelled. The true number of clusters in the data is often unknown and most models require this parameter as an input.…

We consider the problem of constructing small coresets for $k$-Median in Euclidean spaces. Given a large set of data points $P\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, a coreset is a much smaller set $S\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, so that the $k$-Median costs of…

In general, the clustering problem is NP-hard, and global optimality cannot be established for non-trivial instances. For high-dimensional data, distance-based methods for clustering or classification face an additional difficulty, the…
