Title
Grammar-Based Representations of Large Sparse Binary Matrices
Supervisor
En-Hui Yang
Abstract
Large sparse matrices representation is a fundamental problem in big data processing and analysis. To reduce the requirement of memory bandwidth, it is important to develop alternative compact representations of large sparse matrices, while facilitating, if possible, matrix operations.
