Sublinear-Time Approximation for Clustering Via Random Sampling
Abstract. In this paper we present a novel analysis of a random sampling approach for three clustering problems in metric spaces: k-median, min-sum kclustering, and balanced k-medi...

Randomized Approximation Schemes for Cuts and Flows in Capacitated Graphs
We improve on random sampling techniques for approximately solving problems that involve cuts and flows in graphs. We give a near-linear-time construction that transforms any grap...

Approximately uniform random sampling in sensor networks
Recent work in sensor databases has focused extensively on distributed query problems, notably distributed computation of aggregates. Existing methods for computing aggregates bro...

Approximating the independent domatic partition problem in random geometric graphs - an experimental study
We investigate experimentally the Domatic Partition (DP) problem, the Independent Domatic Partition (IDP) problem and the Idomatic partition problem in Random Geometric Graphs (RG...
