Consider a family of sets and a single set, called query set. How can one quickly find a member of the family which has a maximal intersection with the query set? Strict time cons...
The discovery of objects with exceptional behavior is an important challenge from a knowledge discovery standpoint and has attracted much attention recently. In this paper, we pre...
The problem of estimating the kth frequency moment Fk for any nonnegative k, over a data stream by looking at the items exactly once as they arrive, was considered in a seminal pap...
We study the complexity of building pseudorandom generators (PRGs) with logarithmic seed length from hard functions. We show that, starting from a function f : {0, 1}l → {0, 1} ...
The exponentiation function in a finite field of order p (a prime number) is believed to be a one-way function. It is well known that O(log log p) bits are simultaneously hard for ...
