TLDR
A data structure for representing a set of n items from a universe of m items, which uses space n+o(n) and accommodates membership queries in constant time and is easy to implement.
Abstract
A data structure for representing a set of n items from a umverse of m items, which uses space n + o(n) and accommodates membership queries m constant time is described. Both the data structure and the query algorithm are easy to ~mplement.

Faster Deterministic Dictionaries

TL;DR: This paper narrows the gap between deterministic and randomized algorithms exponentially, from the factor of n^epsilon to an O(log n) factor, which is optimal for a certain class of deterministic hashing schemes.

Improved Distance Sensitivity Oracles with Subcubic Preprocessing Time

TL;DR: Chechik and Cohen as mentioned in this paper presented a simple distance sensitivity oracle with preprocessing time O(n 2.7233m) and query time O (1) for directed graphs.

Tight Bounds for Approximate Near Neighbor Searching for Time Series under the Fréchet Distance

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors studied the c-approximate near neighbor problem under the continuous Fréchet distance, and obtained new upper bounds that provide different tradeoffs between approximation factor, preprocessing time, and query time.

Hide and Mine in Strings: Hardness and Algorithms

TL;DR: In this article, the fundamental relation between data sanitization and frequent pattern mining in the context of sequential (string) data is studied and several hardness results for different variants of this problem are presented, essentially showing that these variants cannot be solved or even approximated in polynomial time.

A Dynamic Compressed Self-Index for Highly Repetitive Text Collections

TL;DR: This work develops the first compressed dynamic self- index, called the TST-index, that supports not only fast pattern search but also dynamic update operations for highly repetitive texts.

Should Tables Be Sorted

TL;DR: It is shown that, in a rather general model including al1 the commonly-used schemes, $\lceil $ lg(n+l) $\rceil$ probes to the table are needed in the worst case, provided the key space is sufficiently large.

Storing a sparse table

TL;DR: This work proposes a good worst-case method for storing a static table of n entries, each an integer between 0 and N - 1, and analysis shows why a simpler algorithm used for compressing LR parsing tables works so well.

Perfect hashing functions: a single probe retrieving method for static sets

TL;DR: A refinement of hashing which allows retrieval of an item in a static table with a single probe is considered, and a rough comparison with ordinary hashing is given which shows that this method can be used conveniently in several practical applications.

Reciprocal hashing: a method for generating minimal perfect hashing functions

TL;DR: A method is presented for building minimal perfect hash functions, i.e., functions which allow single probe retrieval from minimally sized tables of identifier sets, and a proof of existence for minimalperfect hash functions of a special type (reciprocal type) is given.
