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...

An Efficient Algorithm for the Approximate Median Selection Problem
We present an efficient algorithm for the approximate median selection problem. The algorithm works in-place; it is fast and easy to implement. For a large array it returns, with ...

Approximation Algorithms for Buy-at-Bulk Geometric Network Design
Abstract. The buy-at-bulk network design problem has been extensively studied in the general graph model. In this paper we consider the geometric version of the problem, where all ...

Black-Box Randomized Reductions in Algorithmic Mechanism Design
We give the first black-box reduction from arbitrary approximation algorithms to truthful approximation mechanisms for a non-trivial class of multiparameter problems. Specifically,...

Efficient Approximation Algorithms for Repairing Inconsistent Databases
We consider the problem of repairing a database that is inconsistent wrt a set of integrity constraints by updating numerical values. In particular, we concentrate on denial integ...
