A New Low Rank Quasi-Newton Update Scheme for Nonlinear Programming
A new quasi-Newton scheme for updating a low rank positive semi-definite Hessian approximation is described, primarily for use in sequential quadratic programming methods for non...

Similarity estimation techniques from rounding algorithms
A locality sensitive hashing scheme is a distribution on a family F of hash functions operating on a collection of objects, such that for two objects x, y, PrhF [h(x) = h(y)] = si...

A Three-String Approach to the Closest String Problem
Given a set of n strings of length L and a radius d, the closest string problem (CSP for short) asks for a string tsol that is within a Hamming distance of d to each of the given ...

Topical query decomposition
We introduce the problem of query decomposition, where we are given a query and a document retrieval system, and we want to produce a small set of queries whose union of resulting...

An Efficient Boundary Encoding Scheme which is Optimal in the Rate-Distortion Sense
In this paper, we present a fast and optimal method for the lossy encoding of object boundaries which are given as 8-connect chain codes. We approximate the boundary by a polygon ...
