A general framework to evaluate different rebalancing operations strategies in one-way car sharing systems

Michel Bierlaire, Selin Ataç, Nikola Obrenovic

Car sharing systems (CSSs) are one of the environmentally beneficial solutions in urban transportation. However, the operators still struggle to make these systems profitable. One of the main contributors in operational cost is rebalancing operations. Ther ...

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

Dan Alistarh, Amirkeivan Mohtashami

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 ...

Demand-based operations of vehicle sharing systems

Selin Ataç

Vehicle sharing systems (VSSs) allow users to rent vehicles for a short period of time, in a more flexible and convenient manner compared to the traditional vehicle rental services. The long-term VSS subscription replaces the need for contract signing for ...

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 ...

Sequential metric dimension for random graphs

Patrick Thiran, Gergely Odor

In the localization game on a graph, the goal is to find a fixed but unknown target node v* with the least number of distance queries possible. In the j-th step of the game, the player queries a single node v_j and receives, as an answer to their query, th ...

Asymptotically Optimal Contextual Bandit Algorithm Using Hierarchical Structures

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 ...

Unsupervised Robust Nonparametric Learning Of Hidden Community Properties

Martin Jaggi, Mikhail Langovoy

We consider learning of fundamental properties of communities in large noisy networks, in the prototypical situation where the nodes or users are split into two classes according to a binary property, e.g., according to their opinions or preferences on a t ...

Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Investigation of Molten Fe-Si-O in Earth's Core

James Badro

Silicon and oxygen are potential light elements in Earth's core because their stronger affinity to metal observed with increasing temperature posits that significant amounts of both can be incorporated into the core. It was proposed that an Fe-Si-O liquid ...

An Ergodic Theory of Binary Operations-Part II: Applications to Polarization

Rajai Nasser

An open problem in polarization theory is to determine the binary operations that always lead to polarization (in the general multilevel sense) when they are used in Arikan style constructions. This paper, which is presented in two parts, solves this probl ...

Elastic transactions

Rachid Guerraoui, Vincent Gramoli

This paper presents elastic transactions, an appealing alternative to traditional transactions, in particular to implement search structures in shared memory multicore architectures. Upon conflict detection, an elastic transaction might drop what it did so ...

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 ...

Algorithmic Resource Verification

Ravichandhran Kandhadai Madhavan

Static estimation of resource utilisation of programs is a challenging and important problem with numerous applications. In this thesis, I present new algorithms that enable users to specify and verify their desired bounds on resource usage of functional p ...

ChoiceRank: Identifying Preferences from Node Traffic in Networks

Matthias Grossglauser, Lucas Maystre

Understanding how users navigate in a network is of high interest in many applications. We consider a setting where only aggregate node-level traffic is observed and tackle the task of learning edge transition probabilities. We cast it as a preference lear ...

Fast generation of lexicographic satisfiable assignments: enabling canonicity in SAT-based applications

Giovanni De Micheli, Paolo Ienne, Mathias Soeken, Ana Petkovska

Lexicographic Boolean satisfiability (LEXSAT) is a variation of the Boolean satisfiability problem (SAT). Given a variable order, LEXSAT finds a satisfying assignment whose integer value under the given variable order is minimum (maximum) among all satisfi ...

Modeling annotator behaviors for crowd labeling

Machine learning applications can benefit greatly from vast amounts of data, provided that reliable labels are available. Mobilizing crowds to annotate the unlabeled data is a common solution. Although the labels provided by the crowd are subjective and no ...

Ergodic Theory Meets Polarization I: A Foundation of Polarization Theory

Rajai Nasser

An open problem in polarization theory is to determine the binary operations that always lead to polarization when they are used in Arıkan style constructions. This paper solves this problem by providing a necessary and sufficient condition for a binary op ...

Non-Rigid Graph Registration using Active Testing Search

Pascal Fua, Raphael Sznitman, Jan Kybic

We present a new approach for matching sets of branching curvilinear structures that form graphs embedded in R2 or R3 and may be subject to deformations. Unlike earlier methods, ours does not rely on local appearance similarity nor does require a good init ...
