A decentralized bargaining protocol on dependent continuous multi-issue for approximate pareto optimal outcomes
Negotiation techniques have been demonstrated to be effective in solving complex multi-objective problems. When the optimization process operates on continuous variables, it can b...

Approximating Rate-Distortion Graphs of Individual Data: Experiments in Lossy Compression and Denoising
Classical rate-distortion theory requires knowledge of an elusive source distribution. Instead, we analyze rate-distortion properties of individual objects using the recently devel...

Approximating sensor network queries using in-network summaries
In this work we present new in-network techniques for communication efficient approximate query processing in wireless sensornets. We use a model-based approach that constructs a...

An Approximate Max-Steiner-Tree-Packing Min-Steiner-Cut Theorem
Given an undirected multigraph G and a subset of vertices S V (G), the STEINER TREE PACKING problem is to find a largest collection of edge-disjoint trees that each connects S. T...

Semidefinite Programming Based Approximation Algorithms
Semidefinite programming based approximation algorithms, such as the Goemans and Williamson approximation algorithm for the MAX CUT problem, are usually shown to have certain perf...
