Deflated Restarting for Matrix Functions
We investigate an acceleration technique for restarted Krylov subspace methods for computing the action of a function of a large sparse matrix on a vector. Its effect is to ultima...

On maximizing welfare when utility functions are subadditive
We consider the problem of maximizing welfare when allocating m items to n players with subadditive utility functions. Our main result is a way of rounding any fractional solution...

Approximating the distribution of fitness over hamming regions
The distribution of fitness values across a set of states sharply influences the dynamics of evolutionary processes and heuristic search in combinatorial optimization. In this p...

Approximation Lasso Methods for Language Modeling
Lasso is a regularization method for parameter estimation in linear models. It optimizes the model parameters with respect to a loss function subject to model complexities. This p...

Facility Location with Client Latencies: Linear-Programming based Techniques for Minimum-Latency Problems
We introduce a problem that is a common generalization of the uncapacitated facility location (UFL) and minimum latency (ML) problems, where facilities not only need to be opened ...
