We propose a weighted common subgraph (WCS) matching algorithm to find the most similar subgraphs in two labeled weighted graphs. WCS matching, as a natural generalization of the equal-sized graph matching or subgraph matching, finds wide…

Finding a low-weight multiple (LWPM) of a given polynomial is very useful in the cryptanalysis of stream ciphers and arithmetic in finite fields. There is no known deterministic polynomial time complexity algorithm for solving this problem,…

In this paper we present linear time approximation schemes for several generalized matching problems on nonbipartite graphs. Our results include $O_\epsilon(m)$-time algorithms for $(1-\epsilon)$-maximum weight $f$-factor and…

We study the maximum weight matching problem in the random-order semi-streaming model and in the robust communication model. Unlike many other sublinear models, in these two frameworks, there is a large gap between the guarantees of the…

We propose a convex-concave programming approach for the labeled weighted graph matching problem. The convex-concave programming formulation is obtained by rewriting the weighted graph matching problem as a least-square problem on the set…

We study the problem of partitioning a set of $n$ objects in a metric space into $k$ clusters $V_1,\dots,V_k$. The quality of the clustering is measured by considering the vector of cluster costs and then minimizing some monotone symmetric…

We design new deterministic CONGEST approximation algorithms for \emph{maximum weight independent set (MWIS)} in \emph{sparse graphs}. As our main results, we obtain new $\Delta(1+\epsilon)$-approximation algorithms as well as algorithms…

Given a vertex-weighted connected graph $G = (V, E)$, the maximum weight internal spanning tree (MwIST for short) problem asks for a spanning tree $T$ of $G$ such that the total weight of the internal vertices in $T$ is maximized. The…

For an arbitrary tree we investigate the problems of constructing a maximum matching which minimizes or maximizes the cardinality of a maximum matching of the graph obtained from original one by its removal and present corresponding…

One of the most useful measures of cluster quality is the modularity of a partition, which measures the difference between the number of the edges joining vertices from the same cluster and the expected number of such edges in a random…

We study local computation algorithms (LCA) for maximum matching. An LCA does not return its output entirely, but reveals parts of it upon query. For matchings, each query is a vertex $v$; the LCA should return whether $v$ is matched -- and…

Graph matching, also known as network alignment, refers to finding a bijection between the vertex sets of two given graphs so as to maximally align their edges. This fundamental computational problem arises frequently in multiple fields…

We introduce a novel multivariate approach for solving weighted parameterized problems. In our model, given an instance of size $n$ of a minimization (maximization) problem, and a parameter $W \geq 1$, we seek a solution of weight at most…

A bipartite graph $G=(U,V,E)$ is convex if the vertices in $V$ can be linearly ordered such that for each vertex $u\in U$, the neighbors of $u$ are consecutive in the ordering of $V$. An induced matching $H$ of $G$ is a matching such that…

We provide an algorithm that maintains, against an adaptive adversary, a $(1-\varepsilon)$-approximate maximum matching in $n$-node $m$-edge general (not necessarily bipartite) undirected graph undergoing edge deletions with high…

This paper presents new methods to estimate the cardinalities of data sets recorded by HyperLogLog sketches. A theoretically motivated extension to the original estimator is presented that eliminates the bias for small and large…

This paper addresses the problem of maximizing the expected size of a matching in the case of unreliable vertices and/or edges. The assumption is that upon failure, remaining vertices that have not been matched may be subject to a new…

Cross-modal image-text retrieval is challenging because of the diverse possible associations between content from different modalities. Traditional methods learn a single-vector embedding to represent semantics of each sample, but struggle…

Order picking and order packing entail retrieving items from storage and packaging them according to customer requests. These activities have always been the main concerns of the companies in reducing warehouse management costs. This paper…

The problem that we consider is the following: given an $n \times n$ array $A$ of positive numbers, find a tiling using at most $p$ rectangles (which means that each array element must be covered by some rectangle and no two rectangles must…
