We present a new approach for designing external graph algorithms and use it to design simple, deterministic and randomized external algorithms for computing connected components, ...

In this paper we address the problem of how to learn a structural prototype that can be used to represent the variations present in a set of trees. The prototype serves as a patte...
We show that any priority queue data structure that supports insert, delete, and find-min operations in pq(n) time, when n is an upper bound on the number of elements in the prio...

In this article, we propose a random walk-based model to predict legislators’ votes on a set of bills. In particular, we first convert roll call data, i.e. the recorded votes a...
Consider a graph problem which is associated with a parameter, for example, that of finding a longest tour spanning k vertices. The following question is natural: Is there a smal...
