Multiplication of 0-1 Matrices via Clustering
摘要
We study applications of clustering (in particular, the Hamming k-center clustering problem) in the design of efficient and practical algorithms for computing an approximate and the exact arithmetic matrix product of two 0-1 rectangular matrices with clustered rows or columns, respectively. Our results in part can be regarded as an extension of the clustering-based approach to Boolean square matrix multiplication due to Arslan and Chidri (CSC 2011). We provide a simple and efficient deterministic algorithm for approximate matrix product of 0-1 matrices, where the additive error is proportional to the minimum maximum radius in an
