This paper considers the problem of variable-length coding over a discrete memoryless channel (DMC) with noiseless feedback. The paper provides a stochastic control view of the problem whose solution is analyzed via a newly proposed…
In this column, we overview recent progress by many authors on understanding the approximability of constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) in low-space streaming models. Inspired by this recent progress, we collate nine conjectural lower…
Maximizing a monotone submodular function under various constraints is a classical and intensively studied problem. However, in the single-pass streaming model, where the elements arrive one by one and an algorithm can store only a small…
Max-Cut is a fundamental problem that has been studied extensively in various settings. We design an algorithm for Euclidean Max-Cut, where the input is a set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, in the model of dynamic geometric streams, where the…
In this paper we introduce and study the Minimum Edge Compact Spanner~(MECS) problem. We prove hardness results related to the problem, design exact and greedy algorithms for solving the problem, and show related experimental results. The…
Finding the longest common subsequence in $k$-length substrings (LCS$k$) is a recently proposed problem motivated by computational biology. This is a generalization of the well-known LCS problem in which matching symbols from two sequences…
The Shortest Common Superstring (SCS) problem asks for the shortest string that contains each of a given set of strings as a substring. Its reverse-complement variant, the Shortest Common Superstring problem with Reverse Complements…
Diversity maximization is a fundamental problem with wide applications in data summarization, web search, and recommender systems. Given a set $X$ of $n$ elements, it asks to select a subset $S$ of $k \ll n$ elements with maximum…
We introduce a novel network-adaptive algorithm that is suitable for alleviating network packet losses for low-latency interactive communications between a source and a destination. Our network-adaptive algorithm estimates in real-time the…
Recently [Bhattacharya et al., STOC 2015] provide the first non-trivial algorithm for the densest subgraph problem in the streaming model with additions and deletions to its edges, i.e., for dynamic graph streams. They present a…
Randomized subspace embedding methods have had a great impact on the solution of a linear least squares (LS) problem by reducing its row dimension, leading to a randomized or sketched LS (sLS) problem, and use the solution of the sLS…
Although several self-indexes for highly repetitive text collections exist, developing an index and search algorithm with editing operations remains a challenge. Edit distance with moves (EDM) is a string-to-string distance measure that…
We study the streaming model for approximate matrix multiplication (AMM). We are interested in the scenario that the algorithm can only take one pass over the data with limited memory. The state-of-the-art deterministic sketching algorithm…
In real-world regression tasks, datasets frequently exhibit imbalanced distributions, characterized by a scarcity of data in high-complexity regions and an abundance in low-complexity areas. This imbalance presents significant challenges…
We study streaming submodular maximization subject to matching/$b$-matching constraints (MSM/MSbM), and present improved upper and lower bounds for these problems. On the upper bounds front, we give primal-dual algorithms achieving the…
The nature of the alignment with gaps corresponding to a longest common subsequence (LCS) of two independent iid random sequences drawn from a finite alphabet is investigated. It is shown that such an optimal alignment typically matches…
Analyzing massive data sets has been one of the key motivations for studying streaming algorithms. In recent years, there has been significant progress in analysing distributions in a streaming setting, but the progress on graph problems…
The goal of this paper is twofold: first, it investigates the effect of low-pass spatial filters for approximate deconvolution large eddy simulation (AD-LES) of turbulent incompressible flows. Second, it proposes the hyper-differential…
We improve the space bound for streaming approximation of Diameter but also of Farthest Neighbor queries, Minimum Enclosing Ball and its Coreset, in high-dimensional Euclidean spaces. In particular, our deterministic streaming algorithms…
We study streaming algorithms for the fundamental geometric problem of computing the cost of the Euclidean Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) on an $n$-point set $X \subset \mathbb{R}^d$. In the streaming model, the points in $X$ can be added and…
