Improved competitive ratio for the matroid secretary problem
The Matroid Secretary Problem, introduced by Babaioff et al. (2007), is a generalization of the Classical Secretary Problem. In this problem, elements from a matroid are presente...

Randomized Decoding for Selection-and-Ordering Problems
The task of selecting and ordering information appears in multiple contexts in text generation and summarization. For instance, methods for title generation construct a headline b...

Competitive Mixtures of Simple Neurons
We propose a competitive finite mixture of neurons (or perceptrons) for solving binary classification problems. Our classifier includes a prior for the weights between different n...

On-Line Algorithms for Weighted Bipartite Matching and Stable Marriages
We give an on-line deterministic algorithm for the weighted bipartite matching problem that achieves a competitive ratio of (2n − 1) in any metric space (where n is the number o...

On Dynamic Shortest Paths Problems
We obtain the following results related to dynamic versions of the shortest-paths problem: (i) Reductions that show that the incremental and decremental singlesource shortest-paths...
