We present faster high-accuracy algorithms for computing $\ell_p$-norm minimizing flows. On a graph with $m$ edges, our algorithm can compute a $(1+1/\text{poly}(m))$-approximate unweighted $\ell_p$-norm minimizing flow with…
We initiate the study of data dimensionality reduction, or sketching, for the $q\to p$ norms. Given an $n \times d$ matrix $A$, the $q\to p$ norm, denoted $\|A\|_{q \to p} = \sup_{x \in \mathbb{R}^d \backslash \vec{0}}…
We propose a family of recursive cutting-plane algorithms to solve feasibility problems with constrained memory, which can also be used for first-order convex optimization. Precisely, in order to find a point within a ball of radius…
We consider the problem of performing linear regression over a stream of $d$-dimensional examples, and show that any algorithm that uses a subquadratic amount of memory exhibits a slower rate of convergence than can be achieved without…
We show how to solve a number of problems in numerical linear algebra, such as least squares regression, $\ell_p$-regression for any $p \geq 1$, low rank approximation, and kernel regression, in time $T(A) \poly(\log(nd))$, where for a…
We give the first L_1-sketching algorithm for integer vectors which produces nearly optimal sized sketches in nearly linear time. This answers the first open problem in the list of open problems from the 2006 IITK Workshop on Algorithms for…
Data subsampling is one of the most natural methods to approximate a massively large data set by a small representative proxy. In particular, sensitivity sampling received a lot of attention, which samples points proportional to an…
An oblivious subspace embedding (OSE), characterized by parameters $m,n,d,\epsilon,\delta$, is a random matrix $\Pi\in \mathbb{R}^{m\times n}$ such that for any $d$-dimensional subspace $T\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, $\Pr_\Pi[\forall x\in T,…
We prove that an $\epsilon$-approximate fixpoint of a map $f:[0,1]^d\rightarrow [0,1]^d$ can be found with $\mathcal{O}(d^2(\log\frac{1}{\epsilon} + \log\frac{1}{1-\lambda}))$ queries to $f$ if $f$ is $\lambda$-contracting with respect to…
Problems on repeated geometric patterns in finite point sets in Euclidean space are extensively studied in the literature of combinatorial and computational geometry. Such problems trace their inspiration to Erd\H{o}s' original work on that…
Sketching techniques have gained popularity in numerical linear algebra to accelerate the solution of least squares problems. The so-called $\varepsilon$-subspace embedding property of a sketching matrix $S$ has been largely used to…
$ \newcommand{\SVP}{\textsf{SVP}} \newcommand{\CVP}{\textsf{CVP}} \newcommand{\eps}{\varepsilon} $We show a number of reductions between the Shortest Vector Problem and the Closest Vector Problem over lattices in different $\ell_p$ norms…
The Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL) lemma is a fundamental result in dimensionality reduction, ensuring that any finite set $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ can be embedded into a lower-dimensional space $\mathbb{R}^k$ while approximately preserving…
Sketching is widely used in randomized linear algebra for low-rank matrix approximation, column subset selection, and many other problems, and it has gained significant traction in machine learning applications. However, sketching large…
In the polytope membership problem, a convex polytope $K$ in $R^d$ is given, and the objective is to preprocess $K$ into a data structure so that, given a query point $q \in R^d$, it is possible to determine efficiently whether $q \in K$.…
We give lower bounds on the amount of memory required by one-pass streaming algorithms for solving several natural learning problems. In a setting where examples lie in $\{0,1\}^d$ and the optimal classifier can be encoded using $\kappa$…
Designing large coupling memory quasi-cyclic spatially-coupled LDPC (QC-SC-LDPC) codes with low error floors requires eliminating specific harmful substructures (e.g., short cycles) induced by edge spreading and lifting. Building on our…
Constrained least squares problems arise in many applications. Their memory and computation costs are expensive in practice involving high-dimensional input data. We employ the so-called "sketching" strategy to project the least squares…
We are studying $d$-dimensional geometric problems that have algorithms with $1-1/d$ appearing in the exponent of the running time, for example, in the form of $2^{n^{1-1/d}}$ or $n^{k^{1-1/d}}$. This means that these algorithms perform…
An outstanding open question posed by Guha and Indyk in 2006 asks to characterize metric spaces in which distances can be estimated using efficient sketches. Specifically, we say that a sketching algorithm is efficient if it achieves…
