Contrastive learning has recently attracted plenty of attention in deep graph clustering for its promising performance. However, complicated data augmentations and time-consuming graph convolutional operation undermine the efficiency of…
A hash table is said to be open-addressed (or non-obliviously open-addressed) if it stores elements (and free slots) in an array with no additional metadata. Intuitively, open-addressed hash tables must incur a space-time tradeoff: The…
In this paper we study a single machine scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing the sum of completion times. Each of the given jobs is either short or long. However the processing times are initially hidden to the algorithm, but…
In recent years, crowdsourcing, aka human aided computation has emerged as an effective platform for solving problems that are considered complex for machines alone. Using human is time-consuming and costly due to monetary compensations.…
We study a clustering problem where the goal is to maximize the coverage of the input points by $k$ chosen centers. Specifically, given a set of $n$ points $P \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, the goal is to pick $k$ centers $C \subseteq…
We give algorithms with running time $2^{O({\sqrt{k}\log{k}})} \cdot n^{O(1)}$ for the following problems. Given an $n$-vertex unit disk graph $G$ and an integer $k$, decide whether $G$ contains (1) a path on exactly/at least $k$ vertices,…
Population protocols are a popular model of distributed computing, in which randomly-interacting agents with little computational power cooperate to jointly perform computational tasks. Inspired by developments in molecular computation, and…
In this paper, we study the distributed optimization problem using approximate first-order information. We suppose the agent can repeatedly call an inexact first-order oracle of each individual objective function and exchange information…
In this paper we show that set-intersection is harder than distance oracle on sparse graphs. Given a collection of total size n which consists of m sets drawn from universe U, the set-intersection problem is to build a data structure which…
We consider the problem of building Distance Sensitivity Oracles (DSOs). Given a directed graph $G=(V, E)$ with edge weights in $\{1, 2, \dots, M\}$, we need to preprocess it into a data structure, and answer the following queries: given…
We consider the clustering aggregation problem in which we are given a set of clusterings and want to find an aggregated clustering which minimizes the sum of mismatches to the input clusterings. In the binary case (each clustering is a…
In many real-world problems, we are dealing with collections of high-dimensional data, such as images, videos, text and web documents, DNA microarray data, and more. Often, high-dimensional data lie close to low-dimensional structures…
New algorithms and optimization techniques are needed to balance the accelerating trend towards bandwidth-starved multicore chips. It is well known that the performance of stencil codes can be improved by temporal blocking, lessening the…
We revisit the asymptotic analysis of probabilistic construction of adjacency matrices of expander graphs proposed in [4]. With better bounds we derived a new reduced sample complexity for the number of nonzeros per column of these…
Clustering algorithms are among the most widely used data mining methods due to their exploratory power and being an initial preprocessing step that paves the way for other techniques. But the problem of calculating the optimal number of…
We study recovering a 1D order from a noisy, locally sampled pairwise comparison matrix under a tight query budget. We recast the task as reconstructing a sparse, noisy line graph and present, to our knowledge, the first method that…
We study point-to-point distance estimation in hypergraphs, where the query is parameterized by a positive integer s, which defines the required level of overlap for two hyperedges to be considered adjacent. To answer s-distance queries, we…
We implement and experimentally evaluate landmark-based oracles for min-cost paths in large-scale time-dependent road networks. We exploit parallelism and lossless compression, combined with a novel travel-time approximation technique, to…
The distance sensitivity oracle (DSO) problem asks us to preprocess a given graph $G=(V,E)$ in order to answer queries of the form $d(x,y,e)$, which denotes the shortest path distance in $G$ from vertex $x$ to vertex $y$ when edge $e$ is…
Spectral clustering is a novel clustering method which can detect complex shapes of data clusters. However, it requires the eigen decomposition of the graph Laplacian matrix, which is proportion to $O(n^3)$ and thus is not suitable for…
