We give near-optimal algorithms for computing an ellipsoidal rounding of a convex polytope whose vertices are given in a stream. The approximation factor is linear in the dimension (as in John's theorem) and only loses an excess logarithmic…

We develop a simple and efficient algorithm for approximating the John Ellipsoid of a symmetric polytope. Our algorithm is near optimal in the sense that our time complexity matches the current best verification algorithm. We also provide…

Many classical algorithms are known for computing the convex hull of a set of $n$ point in $\mathbb{R}^2$ using $O(n)$ space. For large point sets, whose size exceeds the size of the working space, these algorithms cannot be directly used.…

Given a convex polygon $P$ with $n$ vertices, the two-center problem is to find two congruent closed disks of minimum radius such that they completely cover $P$. We propose an algorithm for this problem in the streaming setup, where the…

Histograms, i.e., piece-wise constant approximations, are a popular tool used to represent data distributions. Traditionally, the difference between the histogram and the underlying distribution (i.e., the approximation error) is measured…

We consider the problem of monotone, submodular maximization over a ground set of size $n$ subject to cardinality constraint $k$. For this problem, we introduce the first deterministic algorithms with linear time complexity; these…

In this work, we present a combinatorial, deterministic single-pass streaming algorithm for the problem of maximizing a submodular function, not necessarily monotone, with respect to a cardinality constraint (SMCC). In the case the function…

We introduce a new computational model for data streams: asymptotically exact streaming algorithms. These algorithms have an approximation ratio that tends to one as the length of the stream goes to infinity while the memory used by the…

A streaming algorithm to compute the spectral proper orthogonal decomposition (SPOD) of stationary random processes is presented. As new data becomes available, an incremental update of the truncated eigenbasis of the estimated…

In this paper, we design the first streaming algorithms for the problem of multitasking scheduling on parallel machines with shared processing. In one pass, our streaming approximation schemes can provide an approximate value of the optimal…

Many existing algorithms for streaming geometric data analysis have been plagued by exponential dependencies in the space complexity, which are undesirable for processing high-dimensional data sets. In particular, once $d\geq\log n$, there…

We explore the use of local algorithms in the design of streaming algorithms for the Maximum Directed Cut problem. Specifically, building on the local algorithm of Buchbinder et al. (FOCS'12) and Censor-Hillel et al. (ALGOSENSORS'17), we…

We study streaming algorithms for the $\ell_p$ subspace approximation problem. Given points $a_1, \ldots, a_n$ as an insertion-only stream and a rank parameter $k$, the $\ell_p$ subspace approximation problem is to find a $k$-dimensional…

In this paper we consider the problem of constructing numerical algorithms for approximating of convex compact bodies in d-dimensional Euclidean space by polytopes with any given accuracy. It is well known that optimal with respect to the…

Tracking and approximating data matrices in streaming fashion is a fundamental challenge. The problem requires more care and attention when data comes from multiple distributed sites, each receiving a stream of data. This paper considers…

In this paper, we give an overview of some results concerning best and random approximation of convex bodies by polytopes. We explain how both are linked and see that random approximation is almost as good as best approximation.

In this thesis, we explore streaming algorithms for approximating constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs). The setup is roughly the following: A computer has limited memory space, sees a long "stream" of local constraints on a set of…

We consider the problem of approximating a maximum weighted matching, when the edges of an underlying weighted graph $G(V,E)$ are revealed in a streaming fashion. We analyze a variant of the previously best-known…

Polytopes are the basic finite data structures for convex sets: they appear as feasible regions in linear optimization, as geometric summaries in algorithms, and as random objects in stochastic geometry. A natural geometric question is…

We consider streaming algorithms for approximating a product of input probabilities up to multiplicative error of $1-\epsilon$. It is shown that every randomized streaming algorithm for this problem needs space $\Omega(\log n + \log b -…
