A fundamental problem when adding column pivoting to the Householder QR factorization is that only about half of the computation can be cast in terms of high performing matrix-matrix multiplications, which greatly limits the benefits that…

Sorting a set of items is a task that can be useful by itself or as a building block for more complex operations. The more sophisticated and fast sorting algorithms become asymptotically, the less efficient they are for small sets of items…

Current quantum computer designs will not scale. To scale beyond small prototypes, quantum architectures will likely adopt a modular approach with clusters of tightly connected quantum bits and sparser connections between clusters. We…

In this paper we propose an index key compression scheme based on the notion of distinction bits by proving that the distinction bits of index keys are sufficient information to determine the sorted order of the index keys correctly. While…

A core step of every algorithm for learning regression trees is the selection of the best splitting variable from the available covariates and the corresponding split point. Early tree algorithms (e.g., AID, CART) employed greedy search…

This paper gives a straightforward self-contained proof of the formula for the variance of the number of comparisons used by the Quicksort sorting algorithm when pivots are chosen uniformly at random. The result has been known for some time…

Partitioning a set of elements into an unknown number of mutually exclusive subsets is essential in many machine learning problems. However, assigning elements, such as samples in a dataset or neurons in a network layer, to an unknown and…

The new dual-pivot Quicksort by Vladimir Yaroslavskiy - used in Oracle's Java runtime library since version 7 - features intriguing asymmetries. They make a basic variant of this algorithm use less comparisons than classic single-pivot…

Sorting is a fundamental and well studied problem that has been studied extensively. Sorting plays an important role in the area of databases, as many queries can be served much faster if the relations are first sorted. One of the most…

We present an algorithmic contribution to improve the efficiency of robust trim-fitting in outlier affected geometric regression problems. The method heavily relies on the quick sort algorithm, and we present two important insights. First,…

Linear systems with a tensor product structure arise naturally when considering the discretization of Laplace type differential equations or, more generally, multidimensional operators with separable coefficients. In this work, we focus on…

In computer science, sorting algorithms are crucial for data processing and machine learning. Large datasets and high efficiency requirements provide challenges for comparison-based algorithms like Quicksort and Merge sort, which achieve…

In this work, a rationalized algorithm for calculating the quotient of two quaternions is presented which reduces the number of underlying real multiplications. Hardware for fast multiplication is much more expensive than hardware for fast…

We show that Gottesman's (1998) semantics for Clifford circuits based on the Heisenberg representation gives rise to a lightweight Hoare-like logic for efficiently characterizing a common subset of quantum programs. Our applications include…

This paper develops fast and efficient algorithms for computing Tucker decomposition with a given multilinear rank. By combining random projection and the power scheme, we propose two efficient randomized versions for the truncated…

Tensors, especially higher-order tensors, are typically represented in low-rank formats to preserve the main information of the high-dimensional data while saving memory space. In practice, only a small fraction elements in high-dimensional…

The aim of the paper is to introduce general techniques in order to optimize the parallel execution time of sorting on a distributed architectures with processors of various speeds. Such an application requires a partitioning step. For…

Partition refinement is a method for minimizing automata and transition systems of various types. Recently, a new partition refinement algorithm and associated tool CoPaR were developed that are generic in the transition type of the input…

This letter proposes a fast identification algorithm for Wiener-Hammerstein systems. The computational cost of separating the front and the back linear time invariant block dynamics is significantly improved by using discrete optimization.…

We introduce and analyse a new, extremely simple, randomised sorting algorithm: - choose a pair of indices $\{i, j\}$ according to some distribution $q$; - sort the elements in positions $i$ and $j$ of the array in ascending order. Choosing…
