We continue the study of approximating the number of distinct elements in a data stream of length n to within a (1? ) factor. It is known that if the stream may consist of arbitra...
Submodular function maximization is a central problem in combinatorial optimization, generalizing many important problems including Max Cut in directed/undirected graphs and in hy...

We present HOMER, an observational-equivalence model checker for the 3rd-order fragment of Idealized Algol (IA) augmented with iteration. It works by first translating terms of the...
Summarization is an important task in data mining. A major challenge over the past years has been the efficient construction of fixed-space synopses that provide a deterministic q...
We study the maximum edge-disjoint paths problem in undirected planar graphs: given a graph G and node pairs s1t1, s2t2, . . ., sktk, the goal is to maximize the number of pairs t...
