Path and trajectory diversity: Theory and algorithms
— We present heuristic algorithms for pruning large sets of candidate paths or trajectories down to smaller subsets that maintain desirable characteristics in terms of overall re...

Approximability of partitioning graphs with supply and demand
Suppose that each vertex of a graph G is either a supply vertex or a demand vertex and is assigned a positive real number, called the supply or the demand. Each demand vertex can ...

On Parsimonious Explanations for 2-D Tree- and Linearly-Ordered Data
This paper studies the “explanation problem” for tree- and linearly-ordered array data, a problem motivated by database applications and recently solved for the one-dimensiona...

Simultaneous optimization for concave costs: single sink aggregation or single source buy-at-bulk
We consider the problem of finding efficient trees to send information from k sources to a single sink in a network where information can be aggregated at intermediate nodes in t...
