Testing Halfspaces
This paper addresses the problem of testing whether a Boolean-valued function f is a halfspace, i.e. a function of the form f(x) = sgn(w·x−θ). We consider halfspaces over the ...

Locality sensitive hash functions based on concomitant rank order statistics
: Locality Sensitive Hash functions are invaluable tools for approximate near neighbor problems in high dimensional spaces. In this work, we are focused on LSH schemes where the si...
