We present an efficient distributed online learning scheme to classify data captured from distributed, heterogeneous, and dynamic data sources. Our scheme consists of multiple distributed local learners, that analyze different streams of…
Binary linear classification has been explored since the very early days of the machine learning literature. Perhaps the most classical algorithm is the Perceptron, where a weight vector used to classify examples is maintained, and additive…
We consider the discrepancy problem of coloring $n$ intervals with $k$ colors such that at each point on the line, the maximal difference between the number of intervals of any two colors is minimal. Somewhat surprisingly, a coloring with…
We study the densest subgraph problem and its NP-hard densest at-most-$k$ subgraph variant through the lens of learning-augmented algorithms. We show that, given a reasonably accurate predictor that estimates whether a node belongs to the…
Clustering is an important technique for identifying structural information in large-scale data analysis, where the underlying dataset may be too large to store. In many applications, recent data can provide more accurate information and…
We give new sublinear and parallel algorithms for the extensively studied problem of approximating n-variable r-CSPs (constraint satisfaction problems with constraints of arity r up to an additive error. The running time of our algorithms…
We define a notion called leftmost separator of size at most $k$. A leftmost separator of size $k$ is a minimal separator $S$ that separates two given sets of vertices $X$ and $Y$ such that we "cannot move $S$ more towards $X$" such that…
Consider a set $P$ of $n$ points picked uniformly and independently from $[0,1]^d$ for a constant dimension $d$ -- such a point set is extremely well behaved in many aspects. For example, for a fixed $r \in [0,1]$, we prove a new…

We consider the Euclidean bi-chromatic matching problem in the dynamic setting, where the goal is to efficiently process point insertions and deletions while maintaining a high-quality solution. Computing the minimum cost bi-chromatic…
We introduce the Red-Blue Separation problem on graphs, where we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ whose vertices are colored either red or blue, and we want to select a (small) subset $S \subseteq V$, called red-blue separating set, such that…
Let $P$ be a set of $n$ colored points. We develop efficient data structures that store $P$ and can answer chromatic $k$-nearest neighbor ($k$-NN) queries. Such a query consists of a query point $q$ and a number $k$, and asks for the color…
Automated red blood cell (RBC) classification on blood smear images helps hematologists to analyze RBC lab results in a reduced time and cost. However, overlapping cells can cause incorrect predicted results, and so they have to be…
In this paper, we focus on improving binary 2D instance segmentation to assist humans in labeling ground truth datasets with polygons. Humans labeler just have to draw boxes around objects, and polygons are generated automatically. To be…
Arkin et al.~\cite{ArkinBCCJKMM17} recently introduced \textit{partitioned pairs} network optimization problems: given a metric-weighted graph on $n$ pairs of nodes, the task is to color one node from each pair red and the other blue, and…
Given a training set $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, the nearest-neighbor classifier assigns any query point $q \in \mathbb{R}^d$ to the class of its closest point in $P$. To answer these classification queries, some training points are more…
