The \emph{$\ell_2$ tracking problem} is the task of obtaining a streaming algorithm that, given access to a stream of items $a_1,a_2,a_3,\ldots$ from a universe $[n]$, outputs at each time $t$ an estimate to the $\ell_2$ norm of the…
In this paper, we explore statistical versus computational trade-off to address a basic question in the application of a distributed algorithm: what is the minimal computational cost in obtaining statistical optimality? In smoothing spline…
We consider the algorithm by Ferson et al. (Reliable computing 11(3), p. 207-233, 2005) designed for solving the NP-hard problem of computing the maximal sample variance over interval data, motivated by robust statistics (in fact, the…
