Range searching

PK Agarwal - Handbook of discrete and computational geometry, 2017 - taylorfrancis.com
A central problem in computational geometry, range searching arises in many applications,
and a variety of geometric problems can be formulated as range-searching problems. A …

A general framework for MaxRS and MaxCRS monitoring in spatial data streams

D Amagata, T Hara - ACM Transactions on Spatial Algorithms and …, 2017 - dl.acm.org
This article addresses the MaxRS (Maximizing Range Sum) monitoring problem. Given a set
of weighted spatial stream objects, this problem is to monitor a location of a user-specified …

Efficient indexes for diverse top-k range queries

PK Agarwal, S Sintos, A Steiger - Proceedings of the 39th ACM SIGMOD …, 2020 - dl.acm.org
Let P be a set of n (non-negatively) weighted points in Rd. We consider the problem of
computing a subset of (at most) k diverse and high-valued points of P that lie inside a query …

TM Chan, Y Nekrich, S Rahul, K Tsakalidis - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2018 - arxiv.org
In this work, we present a collection of new results on two fundamental problems in
geometric data structures: orthogonal point location and rectangle stabbing.-We give the first …

Hypervolume subset selection with small subsets

B Groz, S Maniu - Evolutionary Computation, 2019 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
The hypervolume subset selection problem (HSSP) aims at approximating a set of n
multidimensional points in R d with an optimal subset of a given size. The size k of the …

Efficient top-k indexing via general reductions

S Rahul, Y Tao - Proceedings of the 35th ACM SIGMOD-SIGACT-SIGAI …, 2016 - dl.acm.org
Let D be a set of n elements each associated with a real-valued weight, and Q be the set of
all possible predicates allowed on those elements. Given a predicate in Q and integer k, a …

Range Longest Increasing Subsequence and its Relatives: Beating Quadratic Barrier and Approaching Optimality

S Rahul - arXiv preprint arXiv:2404.04795, 2024 - arxiv.org
In this work, we present a plethora of results for the range longest increasing subsequence
problem (Range-LIS) and its variants. The input to Range-LIS is a sequence $\mathcal {S} …

New bounds for range closest-pair problems

J Xue, Y Li, S Rahul, R Janardan - arXiv preprint arXiv:1712.09749, 2017 - arxiv.org
Given a dataset $ S $ of points in $\mathbb {R}^ 2$, the range closest-pair (RCP) problem
aims to preprocess $ S $ into a data structure such that when a query range $ X $ is …

A guide to designing top-k indexes

S Rahul, Y Tao - ACM SIGMOD Record, 2019 - dl.acm.org
Top-k search, which reports the k elements of the highest importance from all the elements
in an underlying dataset that satisfy a certain predicate, has attracted significant attention …

External Memory Three-Sided Range Reporting and Top- Queries with Sublogarithmic Updates

GS Brodal - arXiv preprint arXiv:1509.08240, 2015 - arxiv.org
An external memory data structure is presented for maintaining a dynamic set of $ N $ two-
dimensional points under the insertion and deletion of points, and supporting 3-sided range …
