The splay-list: a distribution-adaptive concurrent skip-list

The design and implementation of efficient concurrent data structures has seen significant attention. However, most of this work has focused on concurrent data structures providing good worst-case guarantees, although, in real workloads, objects are often ...

Fairness and Explainability in Clustering Problems

Xinrui Jia

In this thesis we present and analyze approximation algorithms for three different clustering problems. The formulations of these problems are motivated by fairness and explainability considerations, two issues that have recently received attention in the ...

Feature-based no-reference video quality assessment using Extra Trees

Arash Amini, Hatef Otroshi Shahreza

With the emergence of social networks and improvements in the internet speed, the video data has become an ever-increasing portion of the global internet traffic. Besides the content, the quality of a video sequence is an important issue at the user end wh ...

Metric dimension of critical Galton–Watson trees and linear preferential attachment trees

Gergely Odor

The metric dimension of a graph G is the minimal size of a subset R of vertices of G that, upon reporting their graph distance from a distinguished (source) vertex v⋆, enable unique identification of the source vertex v⋆ among all possible vertices of G. I ...

Asymptotically Optimal Contextual Bandit Algorithm Using Hierarchical Structures

Hakan Gökcesu, Kaan Gökcesu

We propose an online algorithm for sequential learning in the contextual multiarmed bandit setting. Our approach is to partition the context space and, then, optimally combine all of the possible mappings between the partition regions and the set of bandit ...

Interleaving with Coroutines: A Practical Approach for Robust Index Joins

Anastasia Ailamaki, Georgios Psaropoulos

Index join performance is determined by the efficiency of the lookup operation on the involved index. Although database indexes are highly optimized to leverage processor caches, main memory accesses inevitably increase lookup runtime when the index outsiz ...

Optimal Software Patching Plan for PMUs

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Teklemariam Tsegay Tesfay

Phasor measurement units (PMUs) deployed to monitor the state of an electrical grid need to be patched from time to time to prevent attacks that exploit vulnerabilities in the software. Applying some of these patches requires a PMU reboot, which takes the ...

Online indexing and distributed querying model-view sensor data in the cloud

Karl Aberer, Tian Guo, Hao Zhuang

As various kinds of sensors penetrate our daily life (e.g., sensor networks for environmental monitoring, GPS for localization and navigation), the efficient management of massive amount of sensor data becomes increasingly important at present. Many sensor ...

Accelerating Spatial Range Queries

Anastasia Ailamaki, Thomas Heinis, Farhan Tauheed, Alexandros Stougiannis

It is increasingly common for domain scientists to use computational tools to build and simulate spatial models of the phenomena they are studying. The spatial models they build are more and more detailed as well as dense and are consequently difficult to ...

CAT(0) Geometry for the Thompson Group

Dan Titus Salajan

We investigate Farley’s CAT(0) cubical model for Thompson’s group F (we adopt the classical language of F, using binary trees and piecewise linear maps, avoiding the one of diagram groups and pictures). Main results include: in general, Thompson’s group el ...

A Speculation-Friendly Binary Search Tree

Vincent Gramoli

We introduce the first binary search tree algorithm designed for speculative executions. Prior to this work, tree structures were mainly designed for their pessimistic (non-speculative) accesses to have a bounded complexity. Researchers tried to evaluate t ...

Programming with Specifications

Philippe Paul Henri Suter

This thesis explores the use of specifications for the construction of correct programs. We go beyond their standard use as run-time assertions, and present algorithms, techniques and implementations for the tasks of 1) program verification, 2) declarative ...

Bits from Photons : Oversampled Binary Image Acquisition

Feng Yang

The trends in the design of image sensors are to build sensors with low noise, high sensitivity, high dynamic range, and small pixel size. How can we benefit from pixels with small size and high sensitivity? In this dissertation, we study a new image senso ...

Automated Reconstruction of Dendritic and Axonal Trees by Global Optimization with Geometric Priors

Pascal Fua, Engin Türetken, Germán González Serrano

We present a novel probabilistic approach to fully automated delineation of tree structures in noisy 2D images and 3D image stacks. Unlike earlier methods that rely mostly on local evidence, ours builds a set of candidate trees over many different subsets ...

Low power current-mode binary-tree asynchronous Min/Max circuit

Rafal Tomasz Dlugosz

A novel, current-mode, binary-tree, asynchronous Min/Max circuit for application in nonlinear filters as well as in analog artificial neural networks is proposed. The relatively high precision above 99% can be achieved by eliminating the copying of the inp ...

Stable routing under the Spanning Tree Protocol

Laura Sanità

The Spanning Tree Protocol routes traffic on shortest path trees. If some edges fail, the traffic has to be rerouted consequently, setting up alternative trees. In this paper we design efficient algorithms to compute polynomial-size integer weights so as t ...

Optimal decision trees for point location in polytopic data sets - application to explicit MPC

Explicit Model Predictive Control (EMPC) produces control laws defined over a set of polytopic regions in the state space. In this paper we present a method to create a binary search tree for point location in such polytopic sets, in order to provide a fas ...

Multiversion concurrency control for the generalized search tree

Boi Faltings, Ion Constantinescu, Samuel Spycher

Many read-intensive systems where fast access to data is more important than the rate at which data can change make use of multidimensional index structures, like the generalized search tree (GiST). Although in these systems the indexed data are rarely upd ...

On Properties of the Minimum Entropy Sub-tree to Compute Lower Bounds on the Partition Function

Computing the partition function and the marginals of a global probability distribution are two important issues in any probabilistic inference problem. In a previous work, we presented sub-tree based upper and lower bounds on the partition function of a g ...
