Improved robustness of signature-based near-replica detection via lexicon randomization
Detection of near duplicate documents is an important problem in many data mining and information filtering applications. When faced with massive quantities of data, traditional d...

Improved Approximate Detection of Duplicates for Data Streams Over Sliding Windows
Detecting duplicates in data streams is an important problem that has a wide range of applications. In general, precisely detecting duplicates in an unbounded data stream is not fe...

Submodular Approximation: Sampling-based Algorithms and Lower Bounds
We introduce several generalizations of classical computer science problems obtained by replacing simpler objective functions with general submodular functions. The new problems i...

A Primal-Dual Approximation Algorithm for Partial Vertex Cover: Making Educated Guesses
We study the partial vertex cover problem. Given a graph G = (V, E), a weight function w : V → R+ , and an integer s, our goal is to cover all but s edges, by picking a set of v...

Decomposing Coverings and the Planar Sensor Cover Problem
We show that a k-fold covering using translates of an arbitrary convex polygon can be decomposed into Omega(k) covers (using an efficient algorithm). We generalize this result to ...
