Optimizing the Cauchy-Schwarz PDF Distance for Information Theoretic, Non-parametric Clustering
This paper addresses the problem of efficient information theoretic, non-parametric data clustering. We develop a procedure for adapting the cluster memberships of the data pattern...

The Intractability of Computing the Hamming Distance
Given a string x and a language L, the Hamming distance of x to L is the minimum Hamming distance of x to any string in L. The edit distance of a string to a language is analogous...

Distance Oracles for Sparse Graphs
Abstract— Thorup and Zwick, in their seminal work, introduced the approximate distance oracle, which is a data structure that answers distance queries in a graph. For any integer...

Compact Location Problems
We investigate the complexity and approximability of some location problems when two distance values are specified for each pair of potential sites. These problems involve the se...
