We propose a new sequential, adaptive, quadratic-time algorithm for variable-rate lossy compression of memoryless sources at a fixed distortion. The algorithm uses approximate pat...
—The Gap-Hamming-Distance problem arose in the context of proving space lower bounds for a number of key problems in the data stream model. In this problem, Alice and Bob have to...
Keyword search is a familiar and potentially effective way to find information of interest that is "locked" inside relational databases. Current work has generally assum...

Record linkage analysis, which matches records referring to the same real world entities from different data sets, is an important task in data integration. Uncertainty often exi...
In this paper we present the B-coder, an efficient binary arithmetic coder that performs extremely well on a wide range of data. The B-coder should be classed as an `approximate...
