On Efficient Sketching Algorithms

Sketching has become a very effective tool to efficiently extract useful information from very large inputs which are presented to an algorithm in various forms such as a turnstile stream or when the data is partitioned arbitrarily among multiple servers. In this proposal, we describe the main paradigms of computation with large datasets and how we obtain new efficient algorithms for a large variety of problems using sketch-based techniques.
