Clustering bipartite graphs is a fundamental task in network analysis. In the high-dimensional regime where the number of rows $n_1$ and the number of columns $n_2$ of the associated adjacency matrix are of different order, existing methods…

In this paper, we develop two new randomized block-coordinate optimistic gradient algorithms to approximate a solution of nonlinear equations in large-scale settings, which are called root-finding problems. Our first algorithm is…

Correlation Clustering is a fundamental clustering problem, and there has been a line of work on improving the approximation ratio for this problem in recent years. A key algorithmic component in these works is the cluster LP. Chromatic…

This paper presents a fast and simple new 2-approximation algorithm for minimum weighted vertex cover. The unweighted version of this algorithm is equivalent to a well-known greedy maximal independent set algorithm. We prove that this…

This paper explores combinatorial optimization for problems of max-weight graph matching on multi-partite graphs, which arise in integrating multiple data sources. Entity resolution-the data integration problem of performing noisy joins on…

We give efficient distributed algorithms for the minimum vertex cover problem in bipartite graphs in the CONGEST model. From K\H{o}nig's theorem, it is well known that in bipartite graphs the size of a minimum vertex cover is equal to the…

The minimum degree algorithm is one of the most widely-used heuristics for reducing the cost of solving large sparse systems of linear equations. It has been studied for nearly half a century and has a rich history of bridging techniques…

We explore Cluster Editing and its generalization Correlation Clustering with a new operation called permissive vertex splitting which addresses finding overlapping clusters in the face of uncertain information. We determine that both…

We initiate the study of the following general clustering problem. We seek to partition a given set $P$ of data points into $k$ clusters by finding a set $X$ of $k$ centers and assigning each data point to one of the centers. The cost of a…

Graph routing problems have been investigated extensively in operations research, computer science and engineering due to their ubiquity and vast applications. In this paper, we study constant approximation algorithms for some variations of…

With the aggressive scaling of VLSI technology, the explosion of layout patterns creates a critical bottleneck for DFM applications like OPC. Pattern clustering is essential to reduce data complexity, yet existing methods struggle with…

In this paper we consider parallelization for applications whose objective can be expressed as maximizing a non-monotone submodular function under a cardinality constraint. Our main result is an algorithm whose approximation is arbitrarily…

We study the design of efficient approximation algorithms for the $\ell$-center clustering and minimum-diameter $\ell$-clustering problems in high dimensional Euclidean and Hamming spaces. Our main tool is randomized dimension reduction.…

We provide $m^{1+o(1)}k\epsilon^{-1}$-time algorithms for computing multiplicative $(1 - \epsilon)$-approximate solutions to multi-commodity flow problems with $k$-commodities on $m$-edge directed graphs, including concurrent…

We consider the semi-random graph model of [Makarychev, Makarychev and Vijayaraghavan, STOC'12], where, given a random bipartite graph with $\alpha$ edges and an unknown bipartition $(A, B)$ of the vertex set, an adversary can add arbitrary…

We use exponential start time clustering to design faster and more work-efficient parallel graph algorithms involving distances. Previous algorithms usually rely on graph decomposition routines with strict restrictions on the diameters of…

We give the first $2$-approximation algorithm for the cluster vertex deletion problem. This is tight, since approximating the problem within any constant factor smaller than $2$ is UGC-hard. Our algorithm combines the previous approaches,…

It is known that a better than $2$-approximation algorithm for the girth in dense directed unweighted graphs needs $n^{3-o(1)}$ time unless one uses fast matrix multiplication. Meanwhile, the best known approximation factor for a…

We present algorithms for the $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate version of the closest vector problem for certain norms. The currently fastest algorithm (Dadush and Kun 2016) for general norms has running time of $2^{O(n)} (1/\epsilon)^n$. We…

We propose an efficient algorithm for graph matching based on similarity scores constructed from counting a certain family of weighted trees rooted at each vertex. For two Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $\mathcal{G}(n,q)$ whose edges are…
