Deterministic Approximation Algorithms for the Nearest Codeword Problem
The Nearest Codeword Problem (NCP) is a basic algorithmic question in the theory of error-correcting codes. Given a point v ∈ Fn 2 and a linear space L ⊆ Fn 2 of dimension k NC...

A general approach for cache-oblivious range reporting and approximate range counting
We present cache-oblivious solutions to two important variants of range searching: range reporting and approximate range counting. Our main contribution is a general approach for ...
