Computing statistical information on probabilistic data has attracted a lot of attention recently, as the data generated from a wide range of data sources are inherently fuzzy or ...
Sketching techniques can provide approximate answers to aggregate queries either for data-streaming or distributed computation. Small space summaries that have linearity propertie...
Suppose we have a large table T of items i, each with a weight wi, e.g., people and their salary. In a general preprocessing step for estimating arbitrary subset sums, we assign e...

Existing work on the capacity of wireless networks predominantly considers homogeneous random networks with random work load. The most relevant bounds on the network capacity, e.g...
We present a simple and practical algorithm for the c-approximate near neighbor problem (c-NN): given n points P Rd and radius R, build a data structure which, given q Rd , can ...
