Interval Selection in Sliding Windows

Authors: Cezar-Mihail Alexandru and Christian Konrad

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 308, 32nd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2024)


Abstract
We initiate the study of the Interval Selection problem in the (streaming) sliding window model of computation. In this problem, an algorithm receives a potentially infinite stream of intervals on the line, and the objective is to maintain at every moment an approximation to a largest possible subset of disjoint intervals among the L most recent intervals, for some integer L. We give the following results: 1) In the unit-length intervals case, we give a 2-approximation sliding window algorithm with space Õ(|OPT|), and we show that any sliding window algorithm that computes a (2-ε)-approximation requires space Ω(L), for any ε > 0. 2) In the arbitrary-length case, we give a (11/3+ε)-approximation sliding window algorithm with space Õ(|OPT|), for any constant ε > 0, which constitutes our main result. We also show that space Ω(L) is needed for algorithms that compute a (2.5-ε)-approximation, for any ε > 0. Our main technical contribution is an improvement over the smooth histogram technique, which consists of running independent copies of a traditional streaming algorithm with different start times. By employing the one-pass 2-approximation streaming algorithm by Cabello and Pérez-Lantero [Theor. Comput. Sci. '17] for Interval Selection on arbitrary-length intervals as the underlying algorithm, the smooth histogram technique immediately yields a (4+ε)-approximation in this setting. Our improvement is obtained by forwarding the structure of the intervals identified in a run to the subsequent run, which constrains the shape of an optimal solution and allows us to target optimal intervals differently.

Hybrid k-Clustering: Blending k-Median and k-Center

Authors: Fedor V. Fomin, Petr A. Golovach, Tanmay Inamdar, Saket Saurabh, and Meirav Zehavi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 317, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2024)


Abstract
We propose a novel clustering model encompassing two well-known clustering models: k-center clustering and k-median clustering. In the Hybrid k-Clustering problem, given a set P of points in ℝ^d, an integer k, and a non-negative real r, our objective is to position k closed balls of radius r to minimize the sum of distances from points not covered by the balls to their closest balls. Equivalently, we seek an optimal L₁-fitting of a union of k balls of radius r to a set of points in the Euclidean space. When r = 0, this corresponds to k-median; when the minimum sum is zero, indicating complete coverage of all points, it is k-center. Our primary result is a bicriteria approximation algorithm that, for a given ε > 0, produces a hybrid k-clustering with balls of radius (1+ε)r. This algorithm achieves a cost at most 1+ε of the optimum, and it operates in time 2^{(kd/ε)^𝒪(1)} ⋅ n^𝒪(1). Notably, considering the established lower bounds on k-center and k-median, our bicriteria approximation stands as the best possible result for Hybrid k-Clustering.

Fully-Scalable MPC Algorithms for Clustering in High Dimension

Authors: Artur Czumaj, Guichen Gao, Shaofeng H.-C. Jiang, Robert Krauthgamer, and Pavel Veselý

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)


Abstract
We design new parallel algorithms for clustering in high-dimensional Euclidean spaces. These algorithms run in the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model, and are fully scalable, meaning that the local memory in each machine may be n^σ for arbitrarily small fixed σ > 0. Importantly, the local memory may be substantially smaller than the number of clusters k, yet all our algorithms are fast, i.e., run in O(1) rounds. We first devise a fast MPC algorithm for O(1)-approximation of uniform Facility Location. This is the first fully-scalable MPC algorithm that achieves O(1)-approximation for any clustering problem in general geometric setting; previous algorithms only provide poly(log n)-approximation or apply to restricted inputs, like low dimension or small number of clusters k; e.g. [Bhaskara and Wijewardena, ICML'18; Cohen-Addad et al., NeurIPS'21; Cohen-Addad et al., ICML'22]. We then build on this Facility Location result and devise a fast MPC algorithm that achieves O(1)-bicriteria approximation for k-Median and for k-Means, namely, it computes (1+ε)k clusters of cost within O(1/ε²)-factor of the optimum for k clusters. A primary technical tool that we introduce, and may be of independent interest, is a new MPC primitive for geometric aggregation, namely, computing for every data point a statistic of its approximate neighborhood, for statistics like range counting and nearest-neighbor search. Our implementation of this primitive works in high dimension, and is based on consistent hashing (aka sparse partition), a technique that was recently used for streaming algorithms [Czumaj et al., FOCS'22].

Subquadratic Submodular Maximization with a General Matroid Constraint

Authors: Yusuke Kobayashi and Tatsuya Terao

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)


Abstract
We consider fast algorithms for monotone submodular maximization with a general matroid constraint. We present a randomized (1 - 1/e - ε)-approximation algorithm that requires Õ_{ε}(√r n) independence oracle and value oracle queries, where n is the number of elements in the matroid and r ≤ n is the rank of the matroid. This improves upon the previously best algorithm by Buchbinder-Feldman-Schwartz [Mathematics of Operations Research 2017] that requires Õ_{ε}(r² + √rn) queries. Our algorithm is based on continuous relaxation, as with other submodular maximization algorithms in the literature. To achieve subquadratic query complexity, we develop a new rounding algorithm, which is our main technical contribution. The rounding algorithm takes as input a point represented as a convex combination of t bases of a matroid and rounds it to an integral solution. Our rounding algorithm requires Õ(r^{3/2} t) independence oracle queries, while the previously best rounding algorithm by Chekuri-Vondrák-Zenklusen [FOCS 2010] requires O(r² t) independence oracle queries. A key idea in our rounding algorithm is to use a directed cycle of arbitrary length in an auxiliary graph, while the algorithm of Chekuri-Vondrák-Zenklusen focused on directed cycles of length two.

Clustering in Polygonal Domains

Authors: Mark de Berg, Leyla Biabani, Morteza Monemizadeh, and Leonidas Theocharous

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


Abstract
We study various clustering problems for a set D of n points in a polygonal domain P under the geodesic distance. We start by studying the discrete k-median problem for D in P. We develop an exact algorithm which runs in time poly(n,m) + n^O(√k), where m is the complexity of the domain. Subsequently, we show that our approach can also be applied to solve the k-center problem with z outliers in the same running time. Next, we turn our attention to approximation algorithms. In particular, we study the k-center problem in a simple polygon and show how to obtain a (1+ε)-approximation algorithm which runs in time 2^{O((k log(k))/ε)} (n log(m) + m). To obtain this, we demonstrate that a previous approach by Bădoiu et al. [Bâdoiu et al., 2002; Bâdoiu and Clarkson, 2003] that works in ℝ^d, carries over to the setting of simple polygons. Finally, we study the 1-center problem in a simple polygon in the presence of z outliers. We show that a coreset C of size O(z) exists, such that the 1-center of C is a 3-approximation of the 1-center of D, when z outliers are allowed. This result is actually more general and carries over to any metric space, which to the best of our knowledge was not known so far. By extending this approach, we show that for the 1-center problem under the Euclidean metric in ℝ², there exists an ε-coreset of size O(z/ε).

Maximum-Weight Matching in Sliding Windows and Beyond

Authors: Leyla Biabani, Mark de Berg, and Morteza Monemizadeh

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 212, 32nd International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2021)


Abstract
We study the maximum-weight matching problem in the sliding-window model. In this model, we are given an adversarially ordered stream of edges of an underlying edge-weighted graph G(V,E), and a parameter L specifying the window size, and we want to maintain an approximation of the maximum-weight matching of the current graph G(t); here G(t) is defined as the subgraph of G consisting of the edges that arrived during the time interval [max(t-L,1),t], where t is the current time. The goal is to do this with Õ(n) space, where n is the number of vertices of G. We present a deterministic (3.5+ε)-approximation algorithm for this problem, thus significantly improving the (6+ε)-approximation algorithm due to Crouch and Stubbs [Michael S. Crouch and Daniel M. Stubbs, 2014]. We also present a generic machinery for approximating subadditve functions in the sliding-window model. A function f is called subadditive if for every disjoint substreams A, B of a stream S it holds that f(AB) ⩽ f(A) + f(B), where AB denotes the concatenation of A and B. We show that given an α-approximation algorithm for a subadditive function f in the insertion-only model we can maintain a (2α+ε)-approximation of f in the sliding-window model. This improves upon recent result Krauthgamer and Reitblat [Robert Krauthgamer and David Reitblat, 2019], who obtained a (2α²+ε)-approximation.
