Levin Tree Search (LTS) (Orseau et al., 2018) is a search algorithm for deterministic environments that uses a user-specified policy to guide the search. It comes with a formal guarantee on the number of search steps (node visits) for…

In this paper we study the Steiner tree problem over a dynamic set of terminals. We consider the model where we are given an $n$-vertex graph $G=(V,E,w)$ with positive real edge weights, and our goal is to maintain a tree which is a good…

In data analysis, latent variables play a central role because they help provide powerful insights into a wide variety of phenomena, ranging from biological to human sciences. The latent tree model, a particular type of probabilistic…

In this paper, we propose an effective search procedure that interleaves two steps: subproblem generation and subproblem solution. We mainly focus on the first part. It consists of a variable domain value ranking based on reduced costs.…

The problem of Text Indexing is a fundamental algorithmic problem in which one wishes to preprocess a text in order to quickly locate pattern queries within the text. In the ever evolving world of dynamic and on-line data, there is also a…

We present space-efficient parallel strategies for two fundamental combinatorial search problems, namely, backtrack search and branch-and-bound, both involving the visit of an $n$-node tree of height $h$ under the assumption that a node can…

Connectivity query processing is a fundamental problem in graph processing. Given an undirected graph and two query vertices, the problem aims to identify whether they are connected via a path. Given frequent edge updates in real graph…

We consider an ordinal tree $T$ on $n$ nodes, with each node assigned a $d$-dimensional weight vector $\pnt{w} \in \{1,2,\ldots,n\}^d,$ where $d \in \mathbb{N}$ is a constant. We study path queries as generalizations of well-known…

We propose an extension of tree-based space-partitioning indexing structures for data with low intrinsic dimensionality embedded in a high dimensional space. We call this extension an Angle Tree. Our extension can be applied to both…

Decision Tree (DT) Learning is a fundamental problem in Interpretable Machine Learning, yet it poses a formidable optimisation challenge. Practical algorithms have recently emerged, primarily leveraging Dynamic Programming and Branch &…

In the static retrieval problem, a data structure must answer retrieval queries mapping a set of $n$ keys in a universe $[U]$ to $v$-bit values. Information-theoretically, retrieval data structures can use as little as $nv$ bits of space.…

We present an algorithm for a fault tolerant Depth First Search (DFS) Tree in an undirected graph. This algorithm is drastically simpler than the current state-of-the-art algorithms for this problem, uses optimal space and optimal…

Inspired by the classical fractional cascading technique, we introduce new techniques to speed up the following type of iterated search in 3D: The input is a graph $\mathbf{G}$ with bounded degree together with a set $H_v$ of 3D hyperplanes…

For k>=1, we consider the graph dynamical system known as a k-reversible process. In such process, each vertex in the graph has one of two possible states at each discrete time. Each vertex changes its state between the present time and the…

In this paper we consider the following modification of the iterative search problem. We are given a tree $T$, so that a dynamic catalog $C(v)$ is associated with every tree node $v$. For any $x$ and for any node-to-root path $\pi$ in $T$,…

We study the Directed Steiner Tree (DST) problem in layered graphs through a simple path-based linear programming relaxation. This relaxation achieves an integrality gap of O(l log k), where k is the number of terminals and l is the number…

Dynamic tree data structures maintain a forest while supporting insertion and deletion of edges and a broad set of queries in $O(\log n)$ time per operation. Such data structures are at the core of many modern algorithms. Recent work has…

We consider the problem of forecasting multiple values of the future of a vector time series, using some past values. This problem, and related ones such as one-step-ahead prediction, have a very long history, and there are a number of…

We provide new gradient-based methods for efficiently solving a broad class of ill-conditioned optimization problems. We consider the problem of minimizing a function $f : \mathbb{R}^d \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ which is implicitly…

Table structure recognition (TSR) aims at extracting tables in images into machine-understandable formats. Recent methods solve this problem by predicting the adjacency relations of detected cell boxes, or learning to generate the…
