Center-based clustering is a fundamental primitive for data analysis and becomes very challenging for large datasets. In this paper, we focus on the popular $k$-center variant which, given a set $S$ of points from some metric space and a…
In the classic $k$-center problem, we are given a metric graph, and the objective is to open $k$ nodes as centers such that the maximum distance from any vertex to its closest center is minimized. In this paper, we consider two important…
Given a point set $P \subseteq X$ of size $n$ in a metric space $(X,dist)$ of doubling dimension $d$ and two parameters $k \in N$ and $z \in N$, the $k$-center problem with $z$ outliers asks to return a set $C^\ast \subseteq X$ of $k$…
Center-based clustering techniques are fundamental in some areas of machine learning such as data summarization. Generic $k$-center algorithms can produce biased cluster representatives so there has been a recent interest in fair $k$-center…
We present approximation algorithms for some variants of center-based clustering and related problems in the fully dynamic setting, where the pointset evolves through an arbitrary sequence of insertions and deletions. Specifically, we…
Coreset, which is a summary of the original dataset in the form of a small weighted set in the same sample space, provides a promising approach to enable machine learning over distributed data. Although viewed as a proxy of the original…
In the matroid center problem, which generalizes the $k$-center problem, we need to pick a set of centers that is an independent set of a matroid with rank $r$. We study this problem in streaming, where elements of the ground set arrive in…
Center-based clustering is a fundamental primitive for data analysis and becomes very challenging for large datasets. In this paper, we focus on the popular $k$-median and $k$-means variants which, given a set $P$ of points from a metric…
Diversity maximization is a fundamental problem in web search and data mining. For a given dataset $S$ of $n$ elements, the problem requires to determine a subset of $S$ containing $k\ll n$ "representatives" which minimize some diversity…
A set of points $P$ in a metric space and a constant integer $k$ are given. The $k$-center problem finds $k$ points as centers among $P$, such that the maximum distance of any point of $P$ to their closest centers $(r)$ is minimized.…
This paper considers coresets for the robust $k$-medians problem with $m$ outliers, and new constructions in various metric spaces are obtained. Specifically, for metric spaces with a bounded VC or doubling dimension $d$, the coreset size…
In many machine learning tasks, a common approach for dealing with large-scale data is to build a small summary, {\em e.g.,} coreset, that can efficiently represent the original input. However, real-world datasets usually contain outliers…
We consider robust clustering problems in $\mathbb{R}^d$, specifically $k$-clustering problems (e.g., $k$-Median and $k$-Means with $m$ outliers, where the cost for a given center set $C \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ aggregates the distances from…
Given a set of points in a metric space, the $(k,z)$-clustering problem consists of finding a set of $k$ points called centers, such that the sum of distances raised to the power of $z$ of every data point to its closest center is…
Given a metric space, the $(k,z)$-clustering problem consists of finding $k$ centers such that the sum of the of distances raised to the power $z$ of every point to its closest center is minimized. This encapsulates the famous $k$-median…
Centroid based clustering methods such as k-means, k-medoids and k-centers are heavily applied as a go-to tool in exploratory data analysis. In many cases, those methods are used to obtain representative centroids of the data manifold for…
Given a collection of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, the goal of the $(k,z)$-clustering problem is to find a subset of $k$ "centers" that minimizes the sum of the $z$-th powers of the Euclidean distance of each point to the closest center.…
Coresets are arguably the most popular compression paradigm for center-based clustering objectives such as $k$-means. Given a point set $P$, a coreset $\Omega$ is a small, weighted summary that preserves the cost of all candidate solutions…
The $k$-Center problem is one of the most popular clustering problems. After decades of work, the complexity of most of its variants on general metrics is now well understood. Surprisingly, this is not the case for a natural setting that…
We present data streaming algorithms for the $k$-median problem in high-dimensional dynamic geometric data streams, i.e. streams allowing both insertions and deletions of points from a discrete Euclidean space $\{1, 2, \ldots \Delta\}^d$.…
