Temporal alignment of sequences is a fundamental challenge in many applications, such as computer vision and bioinformatics, where local time shifting needs to be accounted for. Misalignment can lead to poor model generalization, especially…
It is unlikely that the discrete Fr\'echet distance between two curves of length $n$ can be computed in strictly subquadratic time. We thus consider the setting where one of the curves, $P$, is known in advance. In particular, we wish to…

To quantify the fundamental evolution of time-varying networks, and detect abnormal behavior, one needs a notion of temporal difference that captures significant organizational changes between two successive instants. In this work, we…

The Fr\'{e}chet distance is a popular distance measure between curves $P$ and $Q$. Conditional lower bounds prohibit $(1 + \varepsilon)$-approximate Fr\'{e}chet distance computations in strongly subquadratic time, even when preprocessing…
In fully dynamic graphs, we know how to maintain a 2-approximation of maximum matching extremely fast, that is, in polylogarithmic update time or better. In a sharp contrast and despite extensive studies, all known algorithms that maintain…
A periodic temporal graph, in its simplest form, is a graph in which every edge appears exactly once in the first $\Delta$ time steps, and then it reappears recurrently every $\Delta$ time steps, where $\Delta$ is a given period length.…

A stable or locally-optimal cut of a graph is a cut whose weight cannot be increased by changing the side of a single vertex. In this paper we study Minimum Stable Cut, the problem of finding a stable cut of minimum weight. Since this…

Similarity search on time series is a frequent operation in large-scale data-driven applications. Sophisticated similarity measures are standard for time series matching, as they are usually misaligned. Dynamic Time Warping or DTW is the…

Computing the Fr\'echet distance between two polygonal curves takes roughly quadratic time. In this paper, we show that for a special class of curves the Fr\'echet distance computations become easier. Let $P$ and $Q$ be two polygonal curves…
Modern networks are highly dynamic, and temporal graphs capture these changes through discrete edge appearances on a fixed vertex set, known in advance up to the graph's lifetime. The Vertex Cover problem extends to the temporal setting as…
