Learning Distance Functions using Equivalence Relations
We address the problem of learning distance metrics using side-information in the form of groups of "similar" points. We propose to use the RCA algorithm, which is a sim...

Optimal hash functions for approximate closest pairs on the n-cube
One way to find closest pairs in large datasets is to use hash functions [6], [12]. In recent years locality-sensitive hash functions for various metrics have been given: projecti...

Fast timing-driven partitioning-based placement for island style FPGAs
In this paper we propose a partitioning-based placement algorithm for FPGAs. The method incorporates simple, but effective heuristics that target delay minimization. The placement...
