MosaicJoin: Compact Semantic Sketches for Value-Level Join Discovery

Grace Fan, Eden Wu, Majid Daliri +1

Join discovery is a core task in dataset search, enabling users to find columns that can be joined with a given query column. Early approaches focused on equi-joins, but data lakes…

TurboQuant: Online Vector Quantization with Near-optimal Distortion Rate

Amir Zandieh, Majid Daliri, Majid Hadian +1

Vector quantization, a problem rooted in Shannon's source coding theory, aims to quantize high-dimensional Euclidean vectors while minimizing distortion in their geometric structur…

Matrix Product Sketching via Coordinated Sampling

Majid Daliri, Juliana Freire, Danrong Li +1

We revisit the well-studied problem of approximating a matrix product, , based on small space sketches and $\mathcal{S}(\mathbf{B}…

Coupling without Communication and Drafter-Invariant Speculative Decoding

Majid Daliri, Christopher Musco, Ananda Theertha Suresh

Suppose Alice has a distribution and Bob has a distribution . Alice wants to draw a sample and Bob a sample such that with as high of probabilit…

QJL: 1-Bit Quantized JL Transform for KV Cache Quantization with Zero Overhead

Amir Zandieh, Majid Daliri, Insu Han

Serving LLMs requires substantial memory due to the storage requirements of Key-Value (KV) embeddings in the KV cache, which grows with sequence length. An effective approach to co…

Sampling Methods for Inner Product Sketching

Majid Daliri, Juliana Freire, Christopher Musco +2

Recently, Bessa et al. (PODS 2023) showed that sketches based on coordinated weighted sampling theoretically and empirically outperform popular linear sketching methods like Johnso…

Simple Analysis of Priority Sampling

Majid Daliri, Juliana Freire, Christopher Musco +2

We prove a tight upper bound on the variance of the priority sampling method (aka sequential Poisson sampling). Our proof is significantly shorter and simpler than the original pro…

KDEformer: Accelerating Transformers via Kernel Density Estimation

Amir Zandieh, Insu Han, Majid Daliri +1

Dot-product attention mechanism plays a crucial role in modern deep architectures (e.g., Transformer) for sequence modeling, however, naïve exact computation of this model incurs q…

Weighted Minwise Hashing Beats Linear Sketching for Inner Product Estimation

Aline Bessa, Majid Daliri, Juliana Freire +4

We present a new approach for computing compact sketches that can be used to approximate the inner product between pairs of high-dimensional vectors. Based on the Weighted MinHash…
