Finding Median Partitions Using Information-Theoretical-Based Genetic Algorithms
: In a database with categorical attributes, each attribute defines a partition whose classes can be regarded as natural clusters of rows. In this paper we focus on finding a parti...

A primal-dual interpretation of two 2-approximation algorithms for the feedback vertex set problem in undirected graphs
Recently, Becker and Geiger and Bafna, Berman and Fujito gave 2-approximation algorithms for the feedback vertex set problem in undirected graphs. We show how their algorithms can...

Approximation Algorithms for Multicommodity-Type Problems with Guarantees Independent of the Graph Size
— Linial, London and Rabinovich [16] and Aumann and Rabani [3] proved that the min-cut max-flow ratio for general maximum concurrent flow problems (when there are k commodities...

Improved Approximation Algorithms for the Minimum Latency Problem via Prize-Collecting Strolls
The minimum latency problem (MLP) is a well-studied variant of the traveling salesman problem (TSP). In the MLP, the server's goal is to minimize the average latency that the...

A Kernighan-Lin Local Improvement Heuristic That Solves Some Hard Problems in Genetic Algorithms
We present a Kernighan-Lin style local improvement heuristic for genetic algorithms. We analyze the run-time cost of the heuristic. We demonstrate through experiments that the heur...
