Approximation schemes for Metric Bisection and partitioning
We design polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for Metric BISECTION, i.e. dividing a given finite metric space into two halves so as to minimize or maximize the sum of di...

Fast Molecular Shape Matching Using Contact Maps
In this paper, we study the problem of computing the similarity of two protein structures ring their contact-map overlap. Contact-map overlap abstracts the problem of computing th...

On Approximation of Bookmark Assignments
Consider a rooted directed acyclic graph G = (V, E) with root r, representing a collection V of web pages connected via a set E of hyperlinks. Each node v is associated with the pr...

Epsilon nets and union complexity
We consider the following combinatorial problem: given a set of n objects (for example, disks in the plane, triangles), and an integer L ≥ 1, what is the size of the smallest su...

Approximately Dominating Representatives
We propose and investigate from the algorithmic standpoint a novel form of fuzzy query called approximately dominating representatives or ADRs. The ADRs of a multidimensional point...
