Improved Deletions in Dynamic Spatial Approximation Trees
The Dynamic Spatial Approximation Tree (dsa–tree) is a recently proposed data structure for searching in metric spaces. It has been shown that it compares favorably against alte...

Functions with prescribed best linear approximations
A common problem in applied mathematics is that of finding a function in a Hilbert space with prescribed best approximations from a finite number of closed vector subspaces. In ...

Approximating edit distance in near-linear time
We show how to compute the edit distance between two strings of length n up to a factor of 2 ~O( log n) in n1+o(1) time. This is the first sub-polynomial approximation algorithm f...

Graph connectivity, partial words, and a theorem of Fine and Wilf
The problem of computing periods in words, or finite sequences of symbols from a finite alphabet, has important applications in several areas including data compression, string se...

Mining, indexing, and querying historical spatiotemporal data
In many applications that track and analyze spatiotemporal data, movements obey periodic patterns; the objects follow the same routes (approximately) over regular time intervals. ...
