Online Embeddings
We initiate the study of on-line metric embeddings. In such an embedding we are given a sequence of n points X = x1, . . . , xn one by one, from a metric space M = (X, D). Our goal...

Approximate Lasserre Integrality Gap for Unique Games
In this paper, we investigate whether a constant round Lasserre Semi-definite Programming (SDP) relaxation might give a good approximation to the UNIQUE GAMES problem. We show tha...

Study on interaction between entropy pruning and kneser-ney smoothing
The paper presents an in-depth analysis of a less known interaction between Kneser-Ney smoothing and entropy pruning that leads to severe degradation in language model performance...
