Approximate String Membership Checking: A Multiple Filter, Optimization-Based Approach
— We consider the approximate string membership checking (ASMC) problem of extracting all the strings or substrings in a document that approximately match some string in a given ...

Correlation Robust Stochastic Optimization
We consider a robust model proposed by Scarf, 1958, for stochastic optimization when only the marginal probabilities of (binary) random variables are given, and the correlation be...

Heuristic Search for Generalized Stochastic Shortest Path MDPs
Research in efficient methods for solving infinite-horizon MDPs has so far concentrated primarily on discounted MDPs and the more general stochastic shortest path problems (SSPs...

Linear Programming Based Approximation Algorithms for Feedback Set Problems in Bipartite Tournaments
We consider the feedback vertex set and feedback arc set problems in bipartite tournaments. We improve on recent results by giving a 2-approximation algorithm for the feedback vert...

Approximation Algorithms for Single-minded Envy-free Profit-maximization Problems with Limited Supply
We present the first polynomial-time approximation algorithms for single-minded envy-free profit-maximization problems [13] with limited supply. Our algorithms return a pricing sc...
