Probabilistic models for the Steiner Tree problem
We consider a probabilistic model for the Steiner Tree problem. Under this model the problem is defined in a 2-stage setting over a first-stage complete weighted graph having it...

Online Least Squares Estimation with Self-Normalized Processes: An Application to Bandit Problems
The analysis of online least squares estimation is at the heart of many stochastic sequential decision-making problems. We employ tools from the self-normalized processes to provi...

Covering Problems with Hard Capacities
We consider the classical vertex cover and set cover problems with the addition of hard capacity constraints. This means that a set (vertex) can only cover a limited number of its...
