The study of self-testing/correcting programs was introduced in [8] in order to allow one to use program P to compute function f without trusting that P works correctly. A self-te...

We give near-tight bounds for estimating the edit distance between two non-repetitive strings (Ulam distance) with constant approximation, in sub-linear time. For two strings of l...
A new statistical model for DNA considers a sequence to be a mixture of regions with little structure and regions that are approximate repeats of other subsequences, i.e. instance...

Spectral methods have been widely used in a broad range of application fields. One important object involved in such methods is the Laplace-Beltrami operator of a manifold. Indeed...
In a variety of applications ranging from optimizing queries on alphanumeric attributes to providing approximate counts of documents containing several query terms, there is an in...
