Fast query execution for retrieval models based on path-constrained random walks
Many recommendation and retrieval tasks can be represented as proximity queries on a labeled directed graph, with typed nodes representing documents, terms, and metadata, and labe...

Shuffling by Semi-Random Transpositions
In the cyclic-to-random shuffle, we are given n cards arranged in a circle. At step k, we exchange the k'th card along the circle with a uniformly chosen random card. The pro...

On low dimensional random projections and similarity search
Random projection (RP) is a common technique for dimensionality reduction under L2 norm for which many significant space embedding results have been demonstrated. However, many si...

Delayed path coupling and generating random permutations
We analyze various stochastic processes for generating permutations almost uniformly at random in distributed and parallel systems. All our protocols are simple, elegant and are b...

Weighted random oblivious routing on torus networks
Torus, mesh, and flattened butterfly networks have all been considered as candidate architectures for on-chip interconnection networks. In this paper, we study the problem of opti...
