A Fast Random Sampling Algorithm for Sparsifying Matrices
We describe a simple random-sampling based procedure for producing sparse matrix approximations. Our procedure and analysis are extremely simple: the analysis uses nothing more th...

Faster Deterministic and Randomized Algorithms on the Homogeneous Set Sandwich Problem
A homogeneous set is a non-trivial, proper subset of a graph’s vertices such that all its elements present exactly the same outer neighborhood. Given two graphs, G1(V, E1), G2(V,...

An Algorithmic Theory of Learning: Robust Concepts and Random Projection
We study the phenomenon of cognitive learning from an algorithmic standpoint. How does the brain effectively learn concepts from a small number of examples despite the fact that e...
