题目Streaming Facility Location in High Dimension

主讲人:Prof. Shaofeng Jiang


摘要

In Euclidean Uniform Facility Location, the input is a set of clients in R^d and the goal is to place facilities to serve them, so as to minimize the total cost of opening facilities plus connecting the clients. We study the classical setting of dynamic geometric streams, where the clients are presented as a sequence of insertions and deletions of points in the grid [\Delta]^d, and we focus on the high-dimensional regime, where the algorithm's space complexity must be poly(d \log \Delta).

We present a new algorithmic framework, based on importance sampling from the stream, for O(1)-approximation of the optimal cost using only poly(d \log \Delta) space. This framework is easy to implement in two passes and can be "compressed" into one pass under the random-order setting. Our main result, for arbitrary-order streams, computes O(d^{1.5})-approximation in one pass by using the new framework but combining the two passes differently. This improves upon previous algorithms that either need space exponential in d or only guarantee O(d \log^2 \Delta)-approximation, and therefore our algorithms for high-dimensional streams are the first to avoid the O(\log \Delta)-factor in approximation that is inherent to the widely-used quadtree decomposition. Our improvement is achieved by introducing a geometric hashing scheme in streaming that maps points in R^d into buckets of bounded diameter, with the key property that every point set of small-enough diameter is hashed into at most poly(d) distinct buckets.

Based on a joint work with Artur Czumaj, Robert Krauthgamer, Pavel Veselý and Mingwei Yang.
