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...

A Sublinear Time Approximation Scheme for Clustering in Metric Spaces
The metric 2-clustering problem is de ned as follows: given a metric (X;d), partition X into two sets S1 and S2 in order to minimize the value of X i X fu;vg Si d(u;v) In this pap...

Approximating the Minimum Spanning Tree Weight in Sublinear Time
We present a probabilistic algorithm that, given a connected graph G (represented by adjacency lists) of average degree d, with edge weights in the set {1, . . . , w}, and given a ...

A Sublinear-Time Randomized Approximation Scheme for the Robinson-Foulds Metric
The Robinson-Foulds (RF) metric is the measure most widely used in comparing phylogenetic trees; it can be computed in linear time using Day's algorithm. When faced with the n...
