The empirical behavior of sampling methods for stochastic programming
Abstract. We investigate the quality of solutions obtained from sample-average approximations to two-stage stochastic linear programs with recourse. We use a recently developed sof...

Approximating Sparsest Cut in Graphs of Bounded Treewidth
We give the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for Sparsest-Cut with general demands in bounded treewidth graphs. In contrast to previous algorithms, which rely on the f...

A Unifying Polyhedral Approximation Framework for Convex Optimization
Abstract. We propose a unifying framework for polyhedral approximation in convex optimization. It subsumes classical methods, such as cutting plane and simplicial decomposition, bu...

Linear approximations for rate control in video coding
An efficient method for rate control is illustrated for joint source-channel rate selection and for encoding under multiple leaky bucket buffer constraints. This method shows adva...

Quadratic programming relaxations for metric labeling and Markov random field MAP estimation
Quadratic program relaxations are proposed as an alternative to linear program relaxations and tree reweighted belief propagation for the metric labeling or MAP estimation problem...
