Hardness of Minimizing and Learning DNF Expressions
We study the problem of finding the minimum size DNF formula for a function f : {0, 1}d → {0, 1} given its truth table. We show that unless NP ⊆ DTIME(npoly(log n) ), there i...

Globally Optimizing Graph Partitioning Problems Using Message Passing
Graph partitioning algorithms play a central role in data analysis and machine learning. Most useful graph partitioning criteria correspond to optimizing a ratio between the cut a...

Labeled Traveling Salesman Problems: Complexity and approximation
We consider labeled Traveling Salesman Problems, defined upon a complete graph of n vertices with colored edges. The objective is to find a tour of maximum or minimum number of co...

On the Positive-Negative Partial Set Cover problem
The Positive-Negative Partial Set Cover problem is introduced and its complexity, especially the hardness-of-approximation, is studied. The problem generalizes the Set Cover probl...

Hardness of Directed Routing with Congestion
Given a graph G and a collection of source-sink pairs in G, what is the least integer c such that each source can be connected by a path to its sink, with at most c paths going th...
