Proximity Algorithms for Nearly-Doubling Spaces
We introduce a new problem in the study of doubling spaces: Given a point set S and a target dimension d , remove from S the fewest number of points so that the remaining set has d...

On bounded occurrence constraint satisfaction
An approximation algorithm for a constraint satisfaction problem is said to be nontrivial if its performance ratio is strictly superior to the expected performance of the algorith...

An Improved Approximation Algorithm for Multiway Cut
Given an undirected graph with edge costs and a subset of k nodes called terminals, a multiway cut is a subset of edges whose removal disconnects each terminal from the rest. Mult...

Incremental Algorithms for Approximate Compilation
Compilation is an important approach to a range of inference problems, since it enables linear-time inference in the size S of the compiled representation. However, the main drawb...

Approximation Algorithms for Shortest Descending Paths in Terrains
A path from s to t on a polyhedral terrain is descending if the height of a point p never increases while we move p along the path from s to t. No efficient algorithm is known to ...
