Space-efficient dynamic orthogonal point location, segment intersection, and range reporting
We describe an asymptotically optimal data-structure for dynamic point location for horizontal segments. For n line-segments, queries take O(log n) time, updates take O(log n) amo...

A learning framework for nearest neighbor search
Can we leverage learning techniques to build a fast nearest-neighbor (ANN) retrieval data structure? We present a general learning framework for the NN problem in which sample que...

Data Structures for Restricted Triangular Range Searching
We present data structures for triangular emptiness and reporting queries for a planar point set, where the query triangle contains the origin. The data structures use near-linear...

Versioning Tree Structures by Path-Merging
We propose path-merging as a refinement of techniques used to make linked data structures partially persistent. Path-merging supports bursts of operations between any two adjacent ...

Semi-persistent Data Structures
A data structure is said to be persistent when any update operation returns a new structure without altering the old version. This paper introduces a new notion of persistence, cal...

Relative Convex Hulls in Semi-dynamic Subdivisions
Abstract. We present data structures for maintaining the relative convex hull of a set of points (sites) in the presence of pairwise non-crossing line segments (barriers) that subd...

Self-improving algorithms for delaunay triangulations
We study the problem of two-dimensional Delaunay triangulation in the self-improving algorithms model [1]. We assume that the n points of the input each come from an independent, ...
