Linear Response for Approximate Inference
Belief propagation on cyclic graphs is an efficient algorithm for computing approximate marginal probability distributions over single nodes and neighboring nodes in the graph. I...

Minimum-cost coverage of point sets by disks
We consider a class of geometric facility location problems in which the goal is to determine a set X of disks given by their centers (tj) and radii (rj) that cover a given set of...

When crossings count - approximating the minimum spanning tree
We present an (1+ε)-approximation algorithm for computing the minimum-spanning tree of points in a planar arrangement of lines, where the metric is the number of crossings betwee...

A dynamic data structure for approximate range searching
In this paper, we introduce a simple, randomized dynamic data structure for storing multidimensional point sets, called a quadtreap. This data structure is a randomized, balanced ...

Differentially Private Approximation Algorithms
Consider the following problem: given a metric space, some of whose points are "clients," select a set of at most k facility locations to minimize the average distance f...
