Smooth Optimization with Approximate Gradient
We show that the optimal complexity of Nesterov's smooth first-order optimization algorithm is preserved when the gradient is only computed up to a small, uniformly bounded er...

Incremental flow
This paper defines an incremental version of the maximum flow problem. In this model, the capacities increase over time and the resulting solution is a sequence of flows that b...

Simulation-based approach to estimation of latent variable models
We propose a simulation-based method for calculating maximum likelihood estimators in latent variable models. The proposed method integrates a recently developed sampling strategy...

On the Crossing Spanning Tree Problem
Given an undirected n-node graph and a set C of m cuts, the minimum crossing tree is a spanning tree which minimizes the maximum crossing of any cut in C, where the crossing of a c...

The approximability of MAX CSP with fixed-value constraints
In the maximum constraint satisfaction problem (Max CSP), one is given a finite collection of (possibly weighted) constraints on overlapping sets of variables, and the goal is to ...
