Can we sense our location in an unfamiliar environment by taking a sublinear-size sample of our surroundings? Can we efficiently encrypt a message that only someone physically close to us can decrypt? To solve this kind of problems, we…

Change point analyses are concerned with identifying positions of an ordered stochastic process that undergo abrupt local changes of some underlying distribution. When multiple processes are observed, it is often the case that information…

In the \emph {barrier resilience} problem (introduced by Kumar {\em et al.}, Wireless Networks 2007), we are given a collection of regions of the plane, acting as obstacles, and we would like to remove the minimum number of regions so that…

This paper addresses the problem of localizing change points in high-dimensional linear regression models with piecewise constant regression coefficients. We develop a dynamic programming approach to estimate the locations of the change…

Let $H$ be an arbitrary family of hyper-planes in $d$-dimensions. We show that the point-location problem for $H$ can be solved by a linear decision tree that only uses a special type of queries called \emph{generalized comparison queries}.…

$\newcommand{\Emph}[1]{{\it{#1}}} \newcommand{\FF}{\mathcal{F}}\newcommand{\region}{\mathsf{r}}\newcommand{\restrictY}[2]{#1 \cap {#2}}$For a set of points $P \subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$, and a family of regions $\FF$, a…

This paper deals with simultaneously fast and in-place algorithms for formulae where the result has to be linearly accumulated: some of the output variables are also input variables, linked by a linear dependency. Fundamental examples…

We present an algorithm for maintaining the width of a planar point set dynamically, as points are inserted or deleted. Our algorithm takes time O(kn^epsilon) per update, where k is the amount of change the update causes in the convex hull,…

Dimension reduction (DR) algorithms have proven to be extremely useful for gaining insight into large-scale high-dimensional datasets, particularly finding clusters in transcriptomic data. The initial phase of these DR methods often…

Let $G$ be a (possibly disconnected) planar subdivision and let $D$ be a probability measure over $\R^2$. The current paper shows how to preprocess $(G,D)$ into an O(n) size data structure that can answer planar point location queries over…

This paper studies the problem of enumerating all maximal collinear subsets of size at least three in a given set of $n$ points. An algorithm for this problem, besides solving degeneracy testing and the exact fitting problem, can also help…

We consider the problem of maintaining an approximate maximum independent set of geometric objects under insertions and deletions. We present data structures that maintain a constant-factor approximate maximum independent set for broad…

Local alignment between medical images and text is essential for accurate diagnosis, though it remains challenging due to the absence of natural local pairings and the limitations of rigid region recognition methods. Traditional approaches…

A \emph{temporal graph} is, informally speaking, a graph that changes with time. When time is discrete and only the relationships between the participating entities may change and not the entities themselves, a temporal graph may be viewed…

In this paper, we develop a \textit{distributed} algorithm to localize an arbitrary number of agents moving in a bounded region of interest. We assume that the network contains \textit{at least one} agent with known location (hereinafter…

We solve the subgraph isomorphism problem in planar graphs in linear time, for any pattern of constant size. Our results are based on a technique of partitioning the planar graph into pieces of small tree-width, and applying dynamic…

Planar Embedding is a drawing of a graph on the plane such that the edges do not intersect each other except at the vertices. We know that testing the planarity of a graph and computing its embedding (if it exists), can efficiently be…

We are witnessing an enormous growth in the volume of data generated by various online services. An important portion of this data contains geographic references, since many of these services are \emph{location-enhanced} and thus produce…

It is a key to construct a similarity graph in graph-oriented subspace learning and clustering. In a similarity graph, each vertex denotes a data point and the edge weight represents the similarity between two points. There are two popular…

Among sub-optimal MAPF solvers, rule-based algorithms are particularly appealing since they are complete. Even in crowded scenarios, they allow finding a feasible solution that brings each agent to its target, preventing deadlock…
