This work investigates a geometric approach to proving cell probe lower bounds for data structure problems. We consider the approximate nearest neighbor search problem on the Bool...
In this paper, we show that for several clustering problems one can extract a small set of points, so that using those core-sets enable us to perform approximate clustering effici...
An instance of the path hitting problem consists of two families of paths, D and H, in a common undirected graph, where each path in H is associated with a non-negative cost. We r...
There has been much progress on geometric set cover problems, but most known techniques only apply to the unweighted setting. For the weighted setting, very few results are known ...
We initiate a systematic study of the Row Deletion(B) problem on matrices: For a fixed “forbidden submatrix” B, the question is, given an input matrix A (both A and B have ent...
