Hardness of Nearest Neighbor under L-infinity
Recent years have seen a significant increase in our understanding of high-dimensional nearest neighbor search (NNS) for distances like the 1 and 2 norms. By contrast, our underst...

On the Structure of Syntenic Distance
This paper examines some of the rich structure of the syntenic distance model of evolutionary distance, introduced by Ferretti et al. (1996). The syntenic distance between two gen...

Optimal/near-optimal dimensionality reduction for distributed estimation in homogeneous and certain inhomogeneous scenarios
We consider distributed estimation of a deterministic vector parameter from noisy sensor observations in a wireless sensor network (WSN). The observation noise is assumed uncorrela...
