Distance Approximating Dimension Reduction of Riemannian Manifolds
We study the problem of projecting high-dimensional tensor data on an unspecified Riemannian manifold onto some lower dimensional subspace1 without much distorting the pairwise geo...

Global optimization for the synthesis of integrated water systems in chemical processes
In this paper, we address the problem of optimal synthesis of an integrated water system, where water using processes and water treatment operations are combined into a single net...

Efficient Parallel Query Processing by Graph Ranking
In this paper we deal with the problem of finding an optimal query execution plan in database systems. We improve the analysis of a polynomial-time approximation algorithm due to M...

Cost-based variable-length-gram selection for string collections to support approximate queries efficiently
Approximate queries on a collection of strings are important in many applications such as record linkage, spell checking, and Web search, where inconsistencies and errors exist in...

Testing monotone high-dimensional distributions
A monotone distribution P over a (partially) ordered domain assigns higher probability to y than to x if y x in the order. We study several natural problems concerning testing pr...
