We prove an optimal generalization of the centerpoint theorem: given a set P of n points in the plane, there exist two points (not necessarily among input points) that hit all con...
A conventional way to discriminate between objects represented by dissimilarities is the nearest neighbor method. A more efficient and sometimes a more accurate solution is offere...

A string similarity join finds similar pairs between two collections of strings. It is an essential operation in many applications, such as data integration and cleaning, and has ...
An automatic analysis method for first-order logic with sets and relations is described. A first-order formula is translated to a quantifier-free boolean formula, which has a mode...
In this paper we study the problem of explicitly constructing a dimension expander raised by [BISW04]: Let Fn be the n dimensional linear space over the field F. Find a small (ide...
