Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) is a classical technique for embedding data in low dimensions, still in widespread use today. Originally introduced in the 1950's, MDS was not designed with high-dimensional data in mind; while it remains…

We study Euclidean $k$-Means under the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model, focusing on the \emph{fully-scalable} setting. Our main result is a fully-scalable $O((\log n/\log\log n)^2)$-approximation in $O(1)$ rounds. Previously,…
