We consider the online Minimum-Cost Perfect Matching with Delays (MPMD) problem introduced by Emek et al. (STOC 2016), in which a general metric space is given, and requests are submitted in different times in this space by an adversary.…
We revisit a fundamental problem in string matching: given a pattern of length m and a text of length n, both over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, compute the Hamming distance between the pattern and the text at every location. Several…
Topological Data Analysis (TDA) is an approach to handle with big data by studying its shape. A main tool of TDA is the persistence diagram, and one can use it to compare data sets. One approach to learn on the similarity between two…
Classification in the sense of similarity is an important issue. In this paper, we study similarity classification in Topological Data Analysis. We define a pseudometric $d_{S}^{(p)}$ to measure the distance between barcodes generated by…
In topological data analysis persistence modules are used to distinguish the legitimate topological features of a finite data set from noise. Interleavings between persistence modules feature prominantly in the analysis. One can show that…
Given a metric space $(X,d_X)$, the earth mover distance between two distributions over $X$ is defined as the minimum cost of a bipartite matching between the two distributions. The doubling dimension of a metric $(X, d_X)$ is the smallest…
In the Min-cost Perfect Matching with Delays (MPMD) problem, 2 m requests arrive over time at points of a metric space. An online algorithm has to connect these requests in pairs, but a decision to match may be postponed till a more…
Given two point sets S and T, we study the many-to-many matching with demands problem (MMD problem) which is a generalization of the many-to-many matching problem (MM problem). In an MMD, each point of one set must be matched to a given…
We present an algorithm for computing a bottleneck matching in a set of $n=2\ell$ points in the plane, which runs in $O(n^{\omega/2}\log n)$ deterministic time, where $\omega\approx 2.37$ is the exponent of matrix multiplication.
The Fr\'echet distance is a commonly used similarity measure between curves. It is known how to compute the continuous Fr\'echet distance between two polylines with $m$ and $n$ vertices in $\mathbb{R}^d$ in $O(mn (\log \log n)^2)$ time;…
The distance transform algorithm is popular in computer vision and machine learning domains. It is used to minimize quadratic functions over a grid of points. Felzenszwalb and Huttenlocher (2004) describe an O(N) algorithm for computing the…
An ideal invariant for multiparameter persistence would be discriminative, computable and stable. In this work we analyse the discriminative power of a stable, computable invariant of multiparameter persistence modules: the fibered bar…
One of the most animated themes of multidimensional persistence is the comparison between invariants. The matching distance between persistent Betti numbers functions (or rank invariants), is among the most studied metrics in this context,…
We consider the problem of online Min-cost Perfect Matching with Delays (MPMD) introduced by Emek et al. (STOC 2016). In this problem, an even number of requests appear in a metric space at different times and the goal of an online…
Although many well-known algorithms can solve each bipartite matching problem instance efficiently, it remains an open question how one could estimate the expected optimal matching distance for arbitrary numbers of randomly distributed…
The bipartite matching problem is widely applied in the field of transportation; e.g., to find optimal matches between supply and demand over time and space. Recent efforts have been made on developing analytical formulas to estimate the…
Consider a set $P$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. In the discrete median line segment problem, the objective is to find a line segment bounded by a pair of points in $P$ such that the sum of the Euclidean distances from $P$ to the line…
In this paper, we study the problem of map matching with travel time constraints. Given a sequence of $k$ spatio-temporal measurements and an embedded path graph with travel time costs, the goal is to snap each measurement to a close-by…
The Earth Mover's Distance is a popular similarity measure in several branches of computer science. It measures the minimum total edge length of a perfect matching between two point sets. The Earth Mover's Distance under Translation…
A bottleneck plane perfect matching of a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is defined to be a perfect non-crossing matching that minimizes the length of the longest edge; the length of this longest edge is known as {\em bottleneck}. The…
