Given a set of data, biclustering aims at finding simultaneous partitions in biclusters of its samples and of the features which are used for representing the samples. Consistent biclusterings allow to obtain correct classifications of the…
As secure processors such as Intel SGX (with hyperthreading) become widely adopted, there is a growing appetite for private analytics on big data. Most prior works on data-oblivious algorithms adopt the classical PRAM model to capture…
We study a ranking and selection problem of learning from choice-based feedback with dynamic assortments. In this problem, a company sequentially displays a set of items to a population of customers and collects their choices as feedback.…
In an array of N elements, M positions and M elements are "marked". We show how to permute the elements in the array so that all marked elements end in marked positions, in time O(N) (in the standard word-RAM model), deterministically, and…
In this paper we present a deterministic $O(\log\log n)$-round algorithm for the 2-ruling set problem in the Massively Parallel Computation model with $\tilde{O}(n)$ memory; this algorithm also runs in $O(\log\log n)$ rounds in the…
We consider Oblivious Shuffling and K-Oblivious Shuffling, a refinement thereof. We provide efficient algorithms for both and discuss their application to the design of Oblivious RAM. The task of K-Oblivious Shuffling is to obliviously…
The importance of classifying connections in large graphs has been the motivation for a rich line of work on distributed subgraph finding that has led to exciting recent breakthroughs. A crucial aspect that remained open was whether…
We show that the $(degree+1)$-list coloring problem can be solved deterministically in $O(D \cdot \log n \cdot\log^2\Delta)$ rounds in the \CONGEST model, where $D$ is the diameter of the graph, $n$ the number of nodes, and $\Delta$ the…
This paper proposes and studies a detection technique for adversarial scenarios (dubbed deterministic detection). This technique provides an alternative detection methodology in case the usual stochastic methods are not applicable: this can…
A sequential design problem for rank aggregation is commonly encountered in psychology, politics, marketing, sports, etc. In this problem, a decision maker is responsible for ranking $K$ items by sequentially collecting pairwise noisy…
With the aggressive scaling of VLSI technology, the explosion of layout patterns creates a critical bottleneck for DFM applications like OPC. Pattern clustering is essential to reduce data complexity, yet existing methods struggle with…
The test-and-set object is a fundamental synchronization primitive for shared memory systems. A test-and-set object stores a bit, initialized to 0, and supports one operation, test&set(), which sets the bit's value to 1 and returns its…
We study the deterministic complexity of the $2$-Ruling Set problem in the model of Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) with linear and strongly sublinear local memory. Linear MPC: We present a constant-round deterministic algorithm for…
We consider the problem of online interval scheduling on a single machine, where intervals arrive online in an order chosen by an adversary, and the algorithm must output a set of non-conflicting intervals. Traditionally in scheduling…
When facing a very large stream of data, it is often desirable to extract most important statistics online in a short time and using small memory. For example, one may want to quickly find the most influential users generating posts online…
The Bulk-Synchronous Parallel model of computation has been used for the architecture independent design and analysis of parallel algorithms whose performance is expressed not only in terms of problem size n but also in terms of parallel…
Feature importance ranking has become a powerful tool for explainable AI. However, its nature of combinatorial optimization poses a great challenge for deep learning. In this paper, we propose a novel dual-net architecture consisting of…
Given string $S[1..N]$ and integer $k$, the {\em suffix selection} problem is to determine the $k$th lexicographically smallest amongst the suffixes $S[i... N]$, $1 \leq i \leq N$. We study the suffix selection problem in the cache-aware…
While a lot of work in theoretical computer science has gone into optimizing the runtime and space usage of data structures, such work very often neglects a very important component of modern computers: the cache. In doing so, very often,…
Feature selection is playing an increasingly significant role with respect to many computer vision applications spanning from object recognition to visual object tracking. However, most of the recent solutions in feature selection are not…
