A new approximation algorithm for the multilevel facility location problem
In this paper we propose a new integer programming formulation for the multilevel facility location problem and a novel 3-approximation algorithm based on LP rounding. The linear ...

Bi-criteria linear-time approximations for generalized k-mean/median/center
We consider the problem of approximating a set P of n points in Rd by a collection of j-dimensional flats, and extensions thereof, under the standard median / mean / center measur...

Efficient Model Selection for Kernel Logistic Regression
Kernel logistic regression models, like their linear counterparts, can be trained using the efficient iteratively reweighted least-squares (IRWLS) algorithm. This approach suggest...

Near-Optimal Sensor Placements in Gaussian Processes: Theory, Efficient Algorithms and Empirical Studies
When monitoring spatial phenomena, which can often be modeled as Gaussian processes (GPs), choosing sensor locations is a fundamental task. There are several common strategies to ...

Incentive analysis of approximately efficient allocation algorithms
We present a series of results providing evidence that the incentive problem with VCG-based mechanisms is not very severe. Our first result uses average-case analysis to show that ...
