On the Memory Requirements of XPath Evaluation over XML Streams
The important challenge of evaluating XPath queries over XML streams has sparked much interest in the past few years. A number of algorithms have been proposed, supporting wider f...

Sparse SOS Relaxations for Minimizing Functions that are Summations of Small Polynomials
This paper discusses how to find the global minimum of functions that are summations of small polynomials ("small" means involving a small number of variables). Some spa...

Near-Bayesian exploration in polynomial time
We consider the exploration/exploitation problem in reinforcement learning (RL). The Bayesian approach to model-based RL offers an elegant solution to this problem, by considering...

On the Complexity of Join Predicates
We consider the complexity of join problems, focusing on equijoins, spatial-overlap joins, and set-containment joins. We use a graph pebbling model to characterize these joins com...

The Complexity of Local List Decoding
We study the complexity of locally list-decoding binary error correcting codes with good parameters (that are polynomially related to information theoretic bounds). We show that co...
