Sketching valuation functions
Motivated by the problem of querying and communicating bidders’ valuations in combinatorial auctions, we study how well different classes of set functions can be sketched. More...

A mixed multi-unit combinatorial auctions test suite
Supply Chain Formation (SCF) is the process of determining the participants in a supply chain, who will exchange what with whom, and the terms of the exchanges. Mixed multi-unit c...

Improved Algorithms for Optimal Winner Determination in Combinatorial Auctions and Generalizations
Combinatorial auctions can be used to reach efficient resource and task allocations in multiagent systems where the items are complementary. Determining the winners is NP-complete...

Approximation algorithms for combinatorial auctions with complement-free bidders
We exhibit three approximation algorithms for the allocation problem in combinatorial auctions with complement free bidders. The running time of these algorithms is polynomial in ...

An Approximate Algorithm for Resource Allocation Using Combinatorial Auctions
Combinatorial Auctions (CAs), where users bid on combination of items, have emerged as a useful tool for resource allocation in distributed systems. However, two main difficulties...
