On the average case performance of some greedy approximation algorithms for the uncapacitated facility location problem
In combinatorial optimization, a popular approach to NP-hard problems is the design of approximation algorithms. These algorithms typically run in polynomial time and are guarante...

Local Algorithms for Approximate Inference in Minor-Excluded Graphs
We present a new local approximation algorithm for computing MAP and logpartition function for arbitrary exponential family distribution represented by a finite-valued pair-wise ...

Approximation Algorithms for Wireless Link Scheduling With SINR-Based Interference
In this paper, we consider the classical problem of link scheduling in wireless networks under an accurate interference model, in which correct packet reception at a receiver node ...

An Approximation Algorithm for the Disjoint Paths Problem in Even-Degree Planar Graphs
In joint work with ´Eva Tardos in 1995, we asked whether it was possible to obtain a polynomial-time, polylogarithmic approximation algorithm for the disjoint paths problem in th...
