We establish the first nontrivial lower bounds on timespace tradeoffs for the selection problem. We prove that any comparison-based randomized algorithm for finding the median ...
Video clip localization consists in identifying real positions of a specific video clip in a video stream. To cope with this problem, we propose a new approach considering the ma...
We deal with the problem of maintaining a dynamic graph so that queries of the form “is there an edge between u and v?” are processed fast. We consider graphs of bounded arbor...
—The Gap-Hamming-Distance problem arose in the context of proving space lower bounds for a number of key problems in the data stream model. In this problem, Alice and Bob have to...
We prove an (lg n) cell-probe lower bound on maintaining connectivity in dynamic graphs, as well as a more general trade-off between updates and queries. Our bound holds even if t...
