Partitioning graphs into blocks of roughly equal size such that few edges run between blocks is a frequently needed operation when processing graphs on a parallel computer. When a topology of a distributed system is known an important task…

The convergence of SGD based distributed training algorithms is tied to the data distribution across workers. Standard partitioning techniques try to achieve equal-sized partitions with per-class population distribution in proportion to the…

Partitioning a graph into balanced blocks such that few edges run between blocks is a key problem for large-scale distributed processing. A current trend for partitioning huge graphs are streaming algorithms, which use low computational…

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has significantly enhanced Large Language Models' ability to access external knowledge, yet current graph-based RAG approaches face two critical limitations in managing hierarchical information: they…

In modern spatial statistics, the structure of data that is collected has become more heterogeneous. Depending on the type of spatial data, different modeling strategies for spatial data are used. For example, a kriging approach for…

The emerging class of instance-optimized systems has shown potential to achieve high performance by specializing to a specific data and query workloads. Particularly, Machine Learning (ML) techniques have been applied successfully to build…

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) enhances large language models with external knowledge, and tree-based RAG organizes documents into hierarchical indexes to support queries at multiple granularities. However, existing Tree-RAG methods…

Clustering is a foundational task in data analysis, yet most algorithms impose rigid assumptions on cluster geometry: centroid-based methods favor convex structures, while density-based approaches break down under variable local density or…

To harness the full benefit of new computing platforms, it is necessary to develop software with parallel computing capabilities. This is no less true for statisticians than for astrophysicists. The R programming language, which is perhaps…

The proliferation of GPS-enabled devices has led to the development of numerous location-based services. These services need to process massive amounts of spatial data in real-time. The current scale of spatial data cannot be handled using…

Scaling regression to large datasets is a common problem in many application areas. We propose a two step approach to scaling regression to large datasets. Using a regression tree (CART) to segment the large dataset constitutes the first…

In the field of 3D perception using 3D LiDAR sensors, ground segmentation is an essential task for various purposes, such as traversable area detection and object recognition. Under these circumstances, several ground segmentation methods…

Subspace clustering aims to find groups of similar objects (clusters) that exist in lower dimensional subspaces from a high dimensional dataset. It has a wide range of applications, such as analysing high dimensional sensor data or DNA…

The availability of larger and larger graph datasets, growing exponentially over the years, has created several new algorithmic challenges to be addressed. Sequential approaches have become unfeasible, while interest on parallel and…

Decision tree optimization is notoriously difficult from a computational perspective but essential for the field of interpretable machine learning. Despite efforts over the past 40 years, only recently have optimization breakthroughs been…

In the context of multi-domain network slices, multiple domains need to work together to provide a service. The problem of determining which part of the service fits within which domain is referred to as slice partitioning. The partitioning…

Modern big data systems run on cloud environments where resources are shared amongst several users and applications. As a result, declarative user queries in these environments need to be optimized and executed over resources that…

Many applications require update-intensive workloads on spatial objects, e.g., social-network services and shared-riding services that track moving objects. By buffering insert and delete operations in memory, the Log Structured Merge Tree…

Electronic data is growing at increasing rates, in both size and connectivity: the increasing presence of, and interest in, relationships between data. An example is the Twitter social network graph. Due to this growth demand is increasing…

Distributed approaches based on the map-reduce programming paradigm have started to be proposed in the bioinformatics domain, due to the large amount of data produced by the next-generation sequencing techniques. However, the use of…
