Inapproximability for planar embedding problems
We consider the problem of computing a minimumdistortion bijection between two point-sets in R2 . We prove the first non-trivial inapproximability result for this problem, for the...

Metric Embeddings with Relaxed Guarantees
We consider the problem of embedding finite metrics with slack: we seek to produce embeddings with small dimension and distortion while allowing a (small) constant fraction of al...

Plane embeddings of planar graph metrics
Embedding metrics into constant-dimensional geometric spaces, such as the Euclidean plane, is relatively poorly understood. Motivated by applications in visualization, ad-hoc netw...

Hard Metrics from Cayley Graphs of Abelian Groups
: Hard metrics are the class of extremal metrics with respect to embedding into Euclidean spaces: they incur Ω(logn) multiplicative distortion, which is as large as it can possib...

Fitting the Smallest Enclosing Bregman Ball
Finding a point which minimizes the maximal distortion with respect to a dataset is an important estimation problem that has recently received growing attentions in machine learnin...
