Closing the Gap: Minimum Space Optimal Time Distance Labeling Scheme for Interval Graphs

Authors: Meng He and Kaiyu Wu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 296, 35th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2024)

Abstract
We present a distance labeling scheme for an interval graph on n vertices that uses at most 3lg n + lg lg n + O(1) bits per vertex to answer distance queries, which ask for the distance between two given vertices, in constant time. Our labeling scheme improves the distance labeling scheme of Gavoille and Paul for connected interval graphs which uses at most 5lg n + O(1) bits per vertex to achieve constant query time. Our improved space cost matches a lower bound proven by Gavoille and Paul within additive lower order terms and is thus optimal. Based on this scheme, we further design a 6lg n + 2lg lg n +O(1) bit distance labeling scheme for circular-arc graphs, with constant distance query time, which improves the 10lg n + O(1) bit distance labeling scheme of Gavoille and Paul. We give a n/2 + O(lg^ 2n) bit labeling scheme for chordal graphs which answers distance queries in O(1) time. The best known lower bound is n/4 - o(n) bits.

Distance Queries over Dynamic Interval Graphs

Authors: Jingbang Chen, Meng He, J. Ian Munro, Richard Peng, Kaiyu Wu, and Daniel J. Zhang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 283, 34th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2023)

Abstract
We design the first dynamic distance oracles for interval graphs, which are intersection graphs of a set of intervals on the real line, and for proper interval graphs, which are intersection graphs of a set of intervals in which no interval is properly contained in another. For proper interval graphs, we design a linear space data structure which supports distance queries (computing the distance between two query vertices) and vertex insertion or deletion in O(lg n) worst-case time, where n is the number of vertices currently in G. Under incremental (insertion only) or decremental (deletion only) settings, we design linear space data structures that support distance queries in O(lg n) worst-case time and vertex insertion or deletion in O(lg n) amortized time, where n is the maximum number of vertices in the graph. Under fully dynamic settings, we design a data structure that represents an interval graph G in O(n) words of space to support distance queries in O(n lg n/S(n)) worst-case time and vertex insertion or deletion in O(S(n)+lg n) worst-case time, where n is the number of vertices currently in G and S(n) is an arbitrary function that satisfies S(n) = Ω(1) and S(n) = O(n). This implies an O(n)-word solution with O(√{nlg n})-time support for both distance queries and updates. All four data structures can answer shortest path queries by reporting the vertices in the shortest path between two query vertices in O(lg n) worst-case time per vertex. We also study the hardness of supporting distance queries under updates over an intersection graph of 3D axis-aligned line segments, which generalizes our problem to 3D. Finally, we solve the problem of computing the diameter of a dynamic connected interval graph.

Exact and Approximate Range Mode Query Data Structures in Practice

Authors: Meng He and Zhen Liu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 265, 21st International Symposium on Experimental Algorithms (SEA 2023)

Abstract
We conduct an experimental study on the range mode problem. In the exact version of the problem, we preprocess an array A, such that given a query range [a, b], the most frequent element in A[a, b] can be found efficiently. For this problem, our most important finding is that the strategy of using succinct data structures to encode more precomputed information not only helped Chan et al. (Linear-space data structures for range mode query in arrays, Theory of Computing Systems, 2013) improve previous results in theory but also helps us achieve the best time/space tradeoff in practice; we even go a step further to replace more components in their solution with succinct data structures and improve the performance further. In the approximate version of this problem, a (1+ε)-approximate range mode query looks for an element whose occurrences in A[a,b] is at least F_{a,b}/(1+ε), where F_{a,b} is the frequency of the mode in A[a,b]. We implement all previous solutions to this problems and find that, even when ε = 1/2, the average approximation ratio of these solutions is close to 1 in practice, and they provide much faster query time than the best exact solution. These solutions achieve different useful time-space tradeoffs, and among them, El-Zein et al. (On Approximate Range Mode and Range Selection, 30th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation, 2019) provide us with one solution whose space usage is only 35.6% to 93.8% of the cost of storing the input array of 32-bit integers (in most cases, the space cost is closer to the lower end, and the average space cost is 20.2 bits per symbol among all datasets). Its non-succinct version also stands out with query support at least several times faster than other O(n/ε)-word structures while using only slightly more space in practice.

Shortest Beer Path Queries in Interval Graphs

Authors: Rathish Das, Meng He, Eitan Kondratovsky, J. Ian Munro, Anurag Murty Naredla, and Kaiyu Wu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 248, 33rd International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2022)

Abstract
Our interest is in paths between pairs of vertices that go through at least one of a subset of the vertices known as beer vertices. Such a path is called a beer path, and the beer distance between two vertices is the length of the shortest beer path. We show that we can represent unweighted interval graphs using 2n log n + O(n) + O(|B|log n) bits where |B| is the number of beer vertices. This data structure answers beer distance queries in O(log^ε n) time for any constant ε > 0 and shortest beer path queries in O(log^ε n + d) time, where d is the beer distance between the two nodes. We also show that proper interval graphs may be represented using 3n + o(n) bits to support beer distance queries in O(f(n)log n) time for any f(n) ∈ ω(1) and shortest beer path queries in O(d) time. All of these results also have time-space trade-offs. Lastly we show that the information theoretic lower bound for beer proper interval graphs is very close to the space of our structure, namely log(4+2√3)n - o(n) (or about 2.9 n) bits.

Faster Path Queries in Colored Trees via Sparse Matrix Multiplication and Min-Plus Product

Authors: Younan Gao and Meng He

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 244, 30th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2022)

Abstract
Let T be an ordinal tree on n nodes in which each node is assigned a color. We consider the batched colored path counting problem and the batched path mode/least frequent element query problem, in which given n query paths, each identified by a pair of nodes in T, one is asked to answer queries of the following forms: How many distinct colors are there on each query path (i.e. the colored path counting problem); what is the color on each query path that occurs at least/most as frequently as any other colors (i.e. the path mode/least frequent element query problem). By reducing the batched colored path counting problem to sparse matrix multiplication, we design a solution that answers n colored path counting queries in Õ(n^{2ω/(ω+1)}) = O(n^1.40704) time in total, while we reduce batched path mode/least frequent element query to the min-plus-query-witness problem so that we can answer a batch of n queries in Õ(n^{{24+2ω}/{17+ω}}) = O(n^1.483814) time. Previously, both problems could only be solved in Õ(n^1.5) time. Based on similar techniques, we design a dynamic colored path counting structure supporting both queries and updates in Õ(n^{{ω+1}/{ω+3}}) = O(n^0.627759) time, while our dynamic path mode/least frequent element query structures support each operation in Õ(n^{{16+ω(1,2,1)}/{26+ω(1,2,1)}}) = O(n^0.658139) time, where ω(1, 2, 1) denotes the minimum value such that the product of an n × n² matrix and an n² × n matrix can be computed in O(n^{ω(1, 2, 1)+ε}) time for any constant ε > 0. We also solve batched range mode/least frequent element query problems over arrays in Õ(n^{{18+2ω}/{13+ω}}) = O(n^1.479603) time. Both problems can be viewed as special cases of these batched path queries, and previously, the fastest algorithm for batched range mode queries and batched range least frequent element queries use O(n^1.4805) and Õ(n^1.5) time, respectively.

Space Efficient Two-Dimensional Orthogonal Colored Range Counting

Authors: Younan Gao and Meng He

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 204, 29th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2021)

Abstract
In the two-dimensional orthogonal colored range counting problem, we preprocess a set, P, of n colored points on the plane, such that given an orthogonal query rectangle, the number of distinct colors of the points contained in this rectangle can be computed efficiently. For this problem, we design three new solutions, and the bounds of each can be expressed in some form of time-space tradeoff. By setting appropriate parameter values for these solutions, we can achieve new specific results with (the space costs are in words and ε is an arbitrary constant in (0,1)): - O(nlg³ n) space and O(√nlg^{5/2} n lg lg n) query time; - O(nlg² n) space and O(√nlg^{4+ε} n) query time; - O(n (lg² n)/(lg lg n)) space and O(√nlg^{5+ε} n) query time; - O(nlg n) space and O(n^{1/2+ε}) query time. A known conditional lower bound to this problem based on Boolean matrix multiplication gives some evidence on the difficulty of achieving near-linear space solutions with query time better than √n by more than a polylogarithmic factor using purely combinatorial approaches. Thus the time and space bounds in all these results are efficient. Previously, among solutions with similar query times, the most space-efficient solution uses O(nlg⁴ n) space to answer queries in O(√nlg⁸ n) time (SIAM. J. Comp. 2008). Thus the new results listed above all achieve improvements in space efficiency, while all but the last result achieve speed-up in query time as well.

Data Structures for Categorical Path Counting Queries

Authors: Meng He and Serikzhan Kazi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 191, 32nd Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2021)

Abstract
Consider an ordinal tree T on n nodes, each of which is assigned a category from an alphabet [σ] = {1,2,…,σ}. We preprocess the tree T in order to support {categorical path counting queries}, which ask for the number of distinct categories occurring on the path in T between two query nodes x and y. For this problem, we propose a linear-space data structure with query time O(√n lg((lg σ)/(lg w))), where w = Ω(lg n) is the word size in the word-RAM. As shown in our proof, from the assumption that matrix multiplication cannot be solved in time faster than cubic (with only combinatorial methods), our result is optimal, save for polylogarithmic speed-ups. For a trade-off parameter 1 ≤ t ≤ n, we propose an O(n+ n²/t²)-word, O(t lg ((lg σ)/(lg w))) query time data structure. We also consider c-approximate categorical path counting queries, which must return an approximation to the number of distinct categories occurring on the query path, by counting each such category at least once and at most c times. We describe a linear-space data structure that supports 2-approximate categorical path counting queries in O((lg n)/(lg lg n)) time. Next, we generalize the categorical path counting queries to weighted trees. Here, a query specifies two nodes x,y and an orthogonal range Q. The answer to thus formed categorical path range counting query is the number of distinct categories occurring on the path from x to y, if only the nodes with weights falling inside Q are considered. We propose an O(n lg lg n +(n/t)⁴)-word data structure with O(t lg lg n) query time, or an O(n+(n/t)⁴)-word} data structure with O(t lg^ε n) query time. For an appropriate choice of the trade-off parameter t, this implies a linear-space data structure with O(n^{3/4} lg^ε n) query time. We then extend the approach to the trees weighted with vectors from [n]^{d}, where d is a constant integer greater than or equal to 2. We present a data structure with O(n lg^{d-1+ε} n + (n/t)^{2d+2}) words of space and O(t (lg^{d-1} n)/((lg lg n)^{d-2})) query time. For an O(n⋅polylog n)-space solution, one thus has O(n^{{2d+1}/{2d+2}}⋅polylog n) query time. The inherent difficulty revealed by the lower bound we proved motivated us to consider data structures based on {sketching}. In unweighted trees, we propose a sketching data structure to solve the approximate categorical path counting problem which asks for a (1±ε)-approximation (i.e. within 1±ε of the true answer) of the number of distinct categories on the given path, with probability 1-δ, where 0 < ε,δ < 1 are constants. The data structure occupies O(n+n/t lg n) words of space, for the query time of O(t lg n). For trees weighted with d-dimensional weight vectors (d ≥ 1), we propose a data structure with O((n + n/t lg n) lg^d n) words of space and O(t lg^{d+1} n) query time. All these problems generalize the corresponding categorical range counting problems in Euclidean space ℝ^{d+1}, for respective d, by replacing one of the dimensions with a tree topology.

Distance Oracles for Interval Graphs via Breadth-First Rank/Select in Succinct Trees

Authors: Meng He, J. Ian Munro, Yakov Nekrich, Sebastian Wild, and Kaiyu Wu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 181, 31st International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2020)

Abstract
We present the first succinct distance oracles for (unweighted) interval graphs and related classes of graphs, using a novel succinct data structure for ordinal trees that supports the mapping between preorder (i.e., depth-first) ranks and level-order (breadth-first) ranks of nodes in constant time. Our distance oracles for interval graphs also support navigation queries - testing adjacency, computing node degrees, neighborhoods, and shortest paths - all in optimal time. Our technique also yields optimal distance oracles for proper interval graphs (unit-interval graphs) and circular-arc graphs. Our tree data structure supports all operations provided by different approaches in previous work, as well as mapping to and from level-order ranks and retrieving the last (first) internal node before (after) a given node in a level-order traversal, all in constant time.

Fast Preprocessing for Optimal Orthogonal Range Reporting and Range Successor with Applications to Text Indexing

Authors: Younan Gao, Meng He, and Yakov Nekrich

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 173, 28th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2020)

Abstract
Under the word RAM model, we design three data structures that can be constructed in O(n √{lg n}) time over n points in an n × n grid. The first data structure is an O(n lg^ε n)-word structure supporting orthogonal range reporting in O(lg lg n+k) time, where k denotes output size and ε is an arbitrarily small constant. The second is an O(n lg lg n)-word structure supporting orthogonal range successor in O(lg lg n) time, while the third is an O(n lg^ε n)-word structure supporting sorted range reporting in O(lg lg n+k) time. The query times of these data structures are optimal when the space costs must be within O(n polylog n) words. Their exact space bounds match those of the best known results achieving the same query times, and the O(n √{lg n}) construction time beats the previous bounds on preprocessing. Previously, among 2d range search structures, only the orthogonal range counting structure of Chan and Pǎtraşcu (SODA 2010) and the linear space, O(lg^ε n) query time structure for orthogonal range successor by Belazzougui and Puglisi (SODA 2016) can be built in the same O(n √{lg n}) time. Hence our work is the first that achieve the same preprocessing time for optimal orthogonal range reporting and range successor. We also apply our results to improve the construction time of text indexes.

Path Query Data Structures in Practice

Authors: Meng He and Serikzhan Kazi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 160, 18th International Symposium on Experimental Algorithms (SEA 2020)

Abstract
We perform experimental studies on data structures that answer path median, path counting, and path reporting queries in weighted trees. These query problems generalize the well-known range median query problem in arrays, as well as the 2d orthogonal range counting and reporting problems in planar point sets, to tree structured data. We propose practical realizations of the latest theoretical results on path queries. Our data structures, which use tree extraction, heavy-path decomposition and wavelet trees, are implemented in both succinct and pointer-based form. Our succinct data structures are further specialized to be plain or entropy-compressed. Through experiments on large sets, we show that succinct data structures for path queries may present a viable alternative to standard pointer-based realizations, in practical scenarios. Compared to naïve approaches that compute the answer by explicit traversal of the query path, our succinct data structures are several times faster in path median queries and perform comparably in path counting and path reporting queries, while being several times more space-efficient. Plain pointer-based realizations of our data structures, requiring a few times more space than the naïve ones, yield up to 100-times speed-up over them.

Path and Ancestor Queries over Trees with Multidimensional Weight Vectors

Authors: Meng He and Serikzhan Kazi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 149, 30th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2019)

Abstract
We consider an ordinal tree T on n nodes, with each node assigned a d-dimensional weight vector w in {1,2,...,n}^d, where d in N is a constant. We study path queries as generalizations of well-known {orthogonal range queries}, with one of the dimensions being tree topology rather than a linear order. Since in our definitions d only represents the number of dimensions of the weight vector without taking the tree topology into account, a path query in a tree with d-dimensional weight vectors generalize the corresponding (d+1)-dimensional orthogonal range query. We solve {ancestor dominance reporting} problem as a direct generalization of dominance reporting problem, in time O(lg^{d-1}{n}+k) and space of O(n lg^{d-2}n) words, where k is the size of the output, for d >= 2. We also achieve a tradeoff of O(n lg^{d-2+epsilon}{n}) words of space, with query time of O((lg^{d-1} n)/(lg lg n)^{d-2}+k), for the same problem, when d >= 3. We solve {path successor problem} in O(n lg^{d-1}{n}) words of space and time O(lg^{d-1+epsilon}{n}) for d >= 1 and an arbitrary constant epsilon > 0. We propose a solution to {path counting problem}, with O(n(lg{n}/lg lg{n})^{d-1}) words of space and O((lg{n}/lg lg{n})^{d}) query time, for d >= 1. Finally, we solve {path reporting problem} in O(n lg^{d-1+epsilon}{n}) words of space and O((lg^{d-1}{n})/(lg lg{n})^{d-2}+k) query time, for d >= 2. These results match or nearly match the best tradeoffs of the respective range queries. We are also the first to solve path successor even for d = 1.

On Approximate Range Mode and Range Selection

Authors: Hicham El-Zein, Meng He, J. Ian Munro, Yakov Nekrich, and Bryce Sandlund

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 149, 30th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2019)

Abstract
For any epsilon in (0,1), a (1+epsilon)-approximate range mode query asks for the position of an element whose frequency in the query range is at most a factor (1+epsilon) smaller than the true mode. For this problem, we design a data structure occupying O(n/epsilon) bits of space to answer queries in O(lg(1/epsilon)) time. This is an encoding data structure which does not require access to the input sequence; the space cost of this structure is asymptotically optimal for constant epsilon as we also prove a matching lower bound. Furthermore, our solution improves the previous best result of Greve et al. (Cell Probe Lower Bounds and Approximations for Range Mode, ICALP'10) by saving the space cost by a factor of lg n while achieving the same query time. In dynamic settings, we design an O(n)-word data structure that answers queries in O(lg n /lg lg n) time and supports insertions and deletions in O(lg n) time, for any constant epsilon in (0,1); the bounds for non-constant epsilon = o(1) are also given in the paper. This is the first result on dynamic approximate range mode; it can also be used to obtain the first static data structure for approximate 3-sided range mode queries in two dimensions. Another problem we consider is approximate range selection. For any alpha in (0,1/2), an alpha-approximate range selection query asks for the position of an element whose rank in the query range is in [k - alpha s, k + alpha s], where k is a rank given by the query and s is the size of the query range. When alpha is a constant, we design an O(n)-bit encoding data structure that can answer queries in constant time and prove this space cost is asymptotically optimal. The previous best result by Krizanc et al. (Range Mode and Range Median Queries on Lists and Trees, Nordic Journal of Computing, 2005) uses O(n lg n) bits, or O(n) words, to achieve constant approximation for range median only. Thus we not only improve the space cost, but also provide support for any arbitrary k given at query time. We also analyse our solutions for non-constant alpha.

Tree Path Majority Data Structures

Authors: Travis Gagie, Meng He, and Gonzalo Navarro

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 123, 29th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2018)

Abstract
We present the first solution to tau-majorities on tree paths. Given a tree of n nodes, each with a label from [1..sigma], and a fixed threshold 0<tau<1, such a query gives two nodes u and v and asks for all the labels that appear more than tau * |P_{uv}| times in the path P_{uv} from u to v, where |P_{uv}| denotes the number of nodes in P_{uv}. Note that the answer to any query is of size up to 1/tau. On a w-bit RAM, we obtain a linear-space data structure with O((1/tau)lg^* n lg lg_w sigma) query time. For any kappa > 1, we can also build a structure that uses O(n lg^{[kappa]} n) space, where lg^{[kappa]} n denotes the function that applies logarithm kappa times to n, and answers queries in time O((1/tau)lg lg_w sigma). The construction time of both structures is O(n lg n). We also describe two succinct-space solutions with the same query time of the linear-space structure. One uses 2nH + 4n + o(n)(H+1) bits, where H <=lg sigma is the entropy of the label distribution, and can be built in O(n lg n) time. The other uses nH + O(n) + o(nH) bits and is built in O(n lg n) time w.h.p.

Improved Time and Space Bounds for Dynamic Range Mode

Authors: Hicham El-Zein, Meng He, J. Ian Munro, and Bryce Sandlund

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 112, 26th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2018)

Abstract
Given an array A of n elements, we wish to support queries for the most frequent and least frequent element in a subrange [l, r] of A. We also wish to support updates that change a particular element at index i or insert/ delete an element at index i. For the range mode problem, our data structure supports all operations in O(n^{2/3}) deterministic time using only O(n) space. This improves two results by Chan et al. [Timothy M. Chan et al., 2014]: a linear space data structure supporting update and query operations in O~(n^{3/4}) time and an O(n^{4/3}) space data structure supporting update and query operations in O~(n^{2/3}) time. For the range least frequent problem, we address two variations. In the first, we are allowed to answer with an element of A that may not appear in the query range, and in the second, the returned element must be present in the query range. For the first variation, we develop a data structure that supports queries in O~(n^{2/3}) time, updates in O(n^{2/3}) time, and occupies O(n) space. For the second variation, we develop a Monte Carlo data structure that supports queries in O(n^{2/3}) time, updates in O~(n^{2/3}) time, and occupies O~(n) space, but requires that updates are made independently of the results of previous queries. The Monte Carlo data structure is also capable of answering k-frequency queries; that is, the problem of finding an element of given frequency in the specified query range. Previously, no dynamic data structures were known for least frequent element or k-frequency queries.

Path Queries on Functions

Authors: Travis Gagie, Meng He, and Gonzalo Navarro

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 78, 28th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2017)

Abstract
Let f : [1..n] -> [1..n] be a function, and l : [1..n] -> [1..s] indicate a label assigned to each element of the domain. We design several compact data structures that answer various queries on the labels of paths in f. For example, we can find the minimum label in f^k (i) for a given i and any k >= 0 in a given range [k1..k2], using n lg n + O(n) bits, or the minimum label in f^(-k) (i) for a given i and k > 0, using 2n lg n + O(n) bits, both in time O(lg n/ lg lg n). By using n lg s + o(n lg s) further bits, we can also count, within the same time, the number of elements within a range of labels, and report each such element in O(1 + lg s / lg lg n) additional time. Several other possible queries are considered, such as top-t queries and t-majorities.

Deletion without Rebalancing in Non-Blocking Binary Search Trees

Authors: Meng He and Mengdu Li

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 70, 20th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2016)

Abstract
We present a provably linearizable and lock-free relaxed AVL tree called the non-blocking ravl tree. At any time, the height of a non-blocking ravl tree is upper bounded by log_d (2m) + c, where d is the golden ratio, m is the total number of successful INSERT operations performed so far and c is the number of active concurrent processes that have inserted new keys and are still rebalancing the tree at this time. The most significant feature of the non-blocking ravl tree is that it does not rebalance itself after DELETE operations. Instead, it performs rebalancing only after INSERT operations. Thus, the non-blocking ravl tree is much simpler to implement than other self-balancing concurrent binary search trees (BSTs) which typically introduce a large number of rebalancing cases after DELETE operations, while still providing a provable non-trivial bound on its height. We further conduct experimental studies to compare our solution with other state-of-the-art concurrent BSTs using randomly generated data sequences under uniform distributions, and find that our solution achieves the best performance among concurrent self-balancing BSTs. As the keys in access sequences are likely to be partially sorted in system software, we also conduct experiments using data sequences with various degrees of presortedness to better simulate applications in practice. Our experimental results show that, when there are enough degrees of presortedness, our solution achieves the best performance among all the concurrent BSTs used in our studies, including those that perform self-balancing operations and those that do not, and thus is potentially the best candidate for many real-world applications.
