Analysis of Agglomerative Clustering
The diameter k-clustering problem is the problem of partitioning a finite subset of Rd into k subsets called clusters such that the maximum diameter of the clusters is minimized. ...

Model Selection Through Sparse Maximum Likelihood Estimation
We consider the problem of estimating the parameters of a Gaussian or binary distribution in such a way that the resulting undirected graphical model is sparse. Our approach is to...
