We present a data structure that supports three-dimensional range reporting queries in $O(\log \log U + (\log \log n)^3+k)$ time and uses $O(n\log^{1+\eps} n)$ space, where $U$ is the size of the universe, $k$ is the number of points in the…

Since the introduction of retroactive data structures at SODA 2004, a major unsolved problem has been to bound the gap between the best partially retroactive data structure (where changes can be made to the past, but only the present can be…

A keyword dictionary is an associative array whose keys are strings. Recent applications handling massive keyword dictionaries in main memory have a need for a space-efficient implementation. When limited to static applications, there are a…

System identification is normally involved in augmenting time series data by time shifting and nonlinearisation (e.g., polynomial basis), both of which introduce redundancy in features and samples. Many research works focus on reducing…

The efficiency of a code is estimated by its redundancy $R$, while the complexity of a code is estimated by its average delay $\bar N$. In this work we construct word-based codes, for which $R \lesssim \bar N^{-5/3}$. Therefore, word-based…

We provide a compact data structure for representing polyominoes that supports neighborhood and visibility queries. Neighborhood queries concern reporting adjacent cells to a given cell, and visibility queries determine whether a straight…

In this paper, we investigate the problem of designing $(n, N; \mathcal{B})$-reconstruction codes for $N\in \{14,11,9,5\}$, where $\mathcal{B}$ is the single-deletion single-substitution ball function that maps a sequence to the set of all…

In this paper, we present a new data structure called the packed compact trie (packed c-trie) which stores a set $S$ of $k$ strings of total length $n$ in $n \log\sigma + O(k \log n)$ bits of space and supports fast pattern matching queries…

The suffix array and the suffix tree are the two most fundamental data structures for string processing. For a length-$n$ text, however, they use $\Theta(n \log n)$ bits of space, which is often too costly. To address this, Grossi and…

Rank/Select dictionaries are data structures for an ordered set $S \subset \{0,1,...,n-1\}$ to compute $\rank(x,S)$ (the number of elements in $S$ which are no greater than $x$), and $\select(i,S)$ (the $i$-th smallest element in $S$),…

In a dynamic data structure problem we wish to maintain an encoding of some data in memory, in such a way that we may efficiently carry out a sequence of queries and updates to the data. A long-standing open problem in this area is to prove…
