Weighted height of random trees
We consider a model of random trees similar to the split trees of Devroye [30] in which a set of items is recursively partitioned. Our model allows for more flexibility in the cho...

The power of two min-hashes for similarity search among hierarchical data objects
In this study we propose sketching algorithms for computing similarities between hierarchical data. Specifically, we look at data objects that are represented using leaf-labeled t...

Improving Index Performance through Prefetching
This paper proposes and evaluates Prefetching B+ -Trees pB+ -Trees, which use prefetching to accelerate two important operations on B+ -Tree indices: searches and range scans. To ...

Rank-Balanced Trees
Since the invention of AVL trees in 1962, a wide variety of ways to balance binary search trees have been proposed. Notable are red-black trees, in which bottom-up rebalancing afte...

An Analysis of the Height of Tries with Random Weights on the Edges
We analyze the weighted height of random tries built from independent strings of i.i.d. symbols on the finite alphabet {1, . . . , d}. The edges receive random weights whose distr...
