Tight Bounds for Sketching Intersecting Sets, with Applications

Revisions: 1

In this work, we study the space complexity of sketching the intersection profile of a distribution $D$ on $2^{[n]}$. Specifically, we seek a succinct data structure that, for any query set $S \subseteq [n]$, approximates the quantity $\Pr_{T \sim D}[T \cap S \neq \emptyset]$ to within a small constant additive ... more >>>

On the LSH Distortion of Ulam and Cayley Similarities

Locality-sensitive hashing (LSH) has found widespread use as a fundamental primitive, particularly to accelerate nearest neighbor search. An LSH scheme for a similarity function $S:\mathcal{X} \times \mathcal{X} \to [0,1]$ is a distribution over hash functions on $\mathcal{X}$ with the property that the probability of collision of any two elements $x,y\in ... more >>>
