Composable Core-sets for Diversity and Coverage Maximization
Summary: Constructs small composable core-sets for multiple diversity-maximization objectives in metric spaces, achieving approximation ratios that nearly match best offline algorithms up to constant factors. Applies to distributed/streaming/MapReduce nearest-neighbor and diversity search, and proves impossibility for max-coverage–based diversity. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
