We provide the first online algorithm for spectral hypergraph sparsification. In the online setting, hyperedges with positive weights are arriving in a stream, and upon the arrival of each hyperedge, we must irrevocably decide whether or…
As graphs continue to grow in size, we seek ways to effectively process such data at scale. The model of streaming graph processing, in which a compact summary is maintained as each edge insertion/deletion is observed, is an attractive one.…
In this paper, we study streaming and online algorithms in the context of randomness in the input. For several problems, a random order of the input sequence---as opposed to the worst-case order---appears to be a necessary evil in order to…
We characterize the streaming space complexity of every symmetric norm $l$ (a norm on $\mathbb{R}^n$ invariant under sign-flips and coordinate-permutations), by relating this space complexity to the measure-concentration characteristics of…
While there are software systems that simplify trajectory streams on the fly, few curve simplification algorithms with quality guarantees fit the streaming requirements. We present streaming algorithms for two such problems under the…
The traditional requirement for a randomized streaming algorithm is just {\em one-shot}, i.e., algorithm should be correct (within the stated $\eps$-error bound) at the end of the stream. In this paper, we study the {\em tracking} problem,…
We study learning-augmented streaming algorithms for estimating the value of MAX-CUT in a graph. In the classical streaming model, while a $1/2$-approximation for estimating the value of MAX-CUT can be trivially achieved with $O(1)$ words…
We resolve the space complexity of single-pass streaming algorithms for approximating the classic set cover problem. For finding an $\alpha$-approximate set cover (for any $\alpha= o(\sqrt{n})$) using a single-pass streaming algorithm, we…
We study classic streaming and sparse recovery problems using deterministic linear sketches, including l1/l1 and linf/l1 sparse recovery problems (the latter also being known as l1-heavy hitters), norm estimation, and approximate inner…
In insertion-only streaming, one sees a sequence of indices $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_m\in [n]$. The stream defines a sequence of $m$ frequency vectors $x^{(1)},\ldots,x^{(m)}\in\mathbb{R}^n$ with $(x^{(t)})_i = |\{j : j\in[t], a_j = i\}|$. That…
This article proposes a powerful scheme to monitor a large number of categorical data streams with heterogeneous parameters or nature. The data streams considered may be either nominal with a number of attribute levels or ordinal with some…
We initiate the investigation of the parameterized complexity of Diameter and Connectivity in the streaming paradigm. On the positive end, we show that knowing a vertex cover of size $k$ allows for algorithms in the Adjacency List (AL)…
Graph coloring is a fundamental problem in computer science. In the semi-streaming model, an input graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and maximum degree $\Delta$ is presented as a stream of edges, and the goal is to compute a vertex coloring using a…
We propose an online debiased lasso (ODL) method for statistical inference in high-dimensional linear models with streaming data. The proposed ODL consists of an efficient computational algorithm for streaming data and approximately normal…
We study streaming algorithms for Correlation Clustering. Given a graph as an arbitrary-order stream of edges, with each edge labeled as positive or negative, the goal is to partition the vertices into disjoint clusters, such that the…
We consider the problem of estimating the number of distinct elements in a large data set (or, equivalently, the support size of the distribution induced by the data set) from a random sample of its elements. The problem occurs in many…
In this paper we consider generalized flow problems where there is an $m$-edge $n$-node directed graph $G = (V,E)$ and each edge $e \in E$ has a loss factor $\gamma_e >0$ governing whether the flow is increased or decreased as it crosses…
The turnstile continual release model of differential privacy captures scenarios where a privacy-preserving real-time analysis is sought for a dataset evolving through additions and deletions. In typical applications of real-time data…
We show an Omega(sqrt{n}/T) lower bound for the space required by any unidirectional constant-error randomized T-pass streaming algorithm that recognizes whether an expression over two types of parenthesis is well-parenthesized. This proves…
Permutation patterns and pattern avoidance are central, well-studied concepts in combinatorics and computer science. Given two permutations $\tau$ and $\pi$, the pattern matching problem (PPM) asks whether $\tau$ contains $\pi$. This…
