Efficient Approximation Algorithms for the Subset-Sums Equality Problem
We investigate the problem of finding two nonempty disjoint subsets of a set of n positive integers, with the objective that the sums of the numbers in the two subsets be as close ...

Coresets, sparse greedy approximation, and the Frank-Wolfe algorithm
The problem of maximizing a concave function f(x) in a simplex S can be solved approximately by a simple greedy algorithm. For given k, the algorithm can find a point x(k) on a k-...
