An Improved LP-based Approximation for Steiner Tree
The Steiner tree problem is one of the most fundamental ÆÈ-hard problems: given a weighted undirected graph and a subset of terminal nodes, find a minimum weight tree spanning ...

Algorithmics in Exponential Time
Exponential algorithms, i.e. algorithms of complexity O(cn ) for some c > 1, seem to be unavoidable in the case of NP-complete problems (unless P=NP), especially if the problem ...

Residual Algorithms: Reinforcement Learning with Function Approximation
A number of reinforcement learning algorithms have been developed that are guaranteed to converge to the optimal solution when used with lookup tables. It is shown, however, that ...

A Value Ordering Heuristic for Local Search in Distributed Resource Allocation
Abstract. In this paper we develop a localized value-ordering heuristic for distributed resource allocation problems. We show how this value ordering heuristics can be used to achi...
