Factorization-based lossless compression of inverted indices
Many large-scale Web applications that require ranked top-k retrieval are implemented using inverted indices. An inverted index represents a sparse term-document matrix, where non...

Virtual coordinates for ad hoc and sensor networks
In many applications of wireless ad hoc and sensor networks, position-awareness is of great importance. Often, as in the case of geometric routing, it is sufficient to have virtua...

Probabilistic Arc Consistency: A Connection between Constraint Reasoning and Probabilistic Reasoning
We document a connection between constraint reasoning and probabilistic reasoning. We present an algorithm, called probabilistic arc consistency, which is both a generalization of...

Truthful and Near-Optimal Mechanism Design via Linear Programming
We give a general technique to obtain approximation mechanisms that are truthful in expectation. We show that for packing domains, any α-approximation algorithm that also bounds ...

String Matching with Mismatches by Real-Valued FFT
String matching with mismatches is a basic concept of information retrieval with some kinds of approximation. This paper proposes an FFT-based algorithm for the problem of string ...
