In the last decade, an impressive increase in software adaptions has led to a surge in log data production, making manual log analysis impractical and establishing the necessity for automated methods. Conversely, most automated analysis…
We propose a new class of models for random permutations, which we call log-linear models, by the analogy with log-linear models used in the analysis of contingency tables. As a special case, we study the family of all Luce-decomposable…
We consider a new construction of locality-sensitive hash functions for Hamming space that is \emph{covering} in the sense that is it guaranteed to produce a collision for every pair of vectors within a given radius $r$. The construction is…
We consider the performance of the Depth First Search (DFS) algorithm on the random graph $G\left(n,\frac{1+\epsilon}{n}\right)$, $\epsilon>0$ a small constant. Recently, Enriquez, Faraud and M\'enard [2] proved that the stack $U$ of the…
We present $\alpha$-loss, $\alpha \in [1,\infty]$, a tunable loss function for binary classification that bridges log-loss ($\alpha=1$) and $0$-$1$ loss ($\alpha = \infty$). We prove that $\alpha$-loss has an equivalent margin-based form…
A function $f : U \to \{0,\ldots,n-1\}$ is a minimal perfect hash function for a set $S \subseteq U$ of size $n$, if $f$ bijectively maps $S$ into the first $n$ natural numbers. These functions are important for many practical applications…
Short integer linear programs are programs with a relatively small number of constraints. We show how recent improvements on the running-times of solvers for such programs can be used to obtain fast pseudo-polynomial time algorithms for…
Numerical routines for Fock states indexing and to handle creation and annihilation operators in the spanned multiconfigurational space are developed. From the combinatorial problem of fitting particles in a truncated basis of individual…
We consider one-sided error property testing of $\mathcal{F}$-minor freeness in bounded-degree graphs for any finite family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$ that contains a minor of $K_{2,k}$, the $k$-circus graph, or the $(k\times 2)$-grid for any…
We prove a lower bound of $\tilde{\Omega}(n^{1/3})$ for the query complexity of any two-sided and adaptive algorithm that tests whether an unknown Boolean function $f:\{0,1\}^n\rightarrow \{0,1\}$ is monotone or far from monotone. This…
We develop an algorithm for minimizing a function using $n$ batched function value measurements at each of $T$ rounds by using classifiers to identify a function's sublevel set. We show that sufficiently accurate classifiers can achieve…
This note provides a very short proof of a spectral gap independent property of the simultaneous iterations algorithm for finding the top singular space of a matrix. See Rokhlin-Szlam-Tygert-2009, Halko-Martinsson-Tropp-2011 and…
This work proposes deep network models and learning algorithms for unsupervised and supervised binary hashing. Our novel network design constrains one hidden layer to directly output the binary codes. This addresses a challenging issue in…
We study how to allocate inference-time compute for competitive programming under fixed budgets. Evaluating 216 Codeforces problems across Divisions 1-3, we compare agent-based reasoning with repeated independent sampling (k-shot) as a…
In the context of unconstraint numerical optimization, this paper investigates the global linear convergence of a simple probabilistic derivative-free optimization algorithm (DFO). The algorithm samples a candidate solution from a standard…
We study optimal perfect distinguishability between a unitary and a general quantum operation. In 2-dimensional case we provide a simple sufficient and necessary condition for sequential perfect distinguishability and an analytical formula…
The analysis of randomized search heuristics on classes of functions is fundamental for the understanding of the underlying stochastic process and the development of suitable proof techniques. Recently, remarkable progress has been made in…
We consider the problem of testing whether an unknown Boolean function $f$ is monotone versus $\epsilon$-far from every monotone function. The two main results of this paper are a new lower bound and a new algorithm for this well-studied…
Approximate functional dependencies (AFDs) relax exact functional dependencies by tolerating a bounded degree of violation, making them suited for data quality auditing. Threshold-based discovery returns all dependencies above a…
Ordered search is the task of finding an item in an ordered list using comparison queries. The best exact classical algorithm for this fundamental problem uses $\lceil \log_{2}{n}\rceil$ queries for a list of length $n$. Quantum computers…
