Relative Performance Guarantees for Approximate Inference in Latent Dirichlet Allocation
Hierarchical probabilistic modeling of discrete data has emerged as a powerful tool for text analysis. Posterior inference in such models is intractable, and practitioners rely on...

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 ...

The Shortest Vector in a Lattice is Hard to Approximate to Within Some Constant
We show that approximating the shortest vector problem (in any p norm) to within any constant factor less than p 2 is hard for NP under reverse unfaithful random reductions with i...

Approximations for minimum and min-max vehicle routing problems
: We consider a variety of vehicle routing problems. The input to a problem consists of a graph G = (N, E) and edge lengths l(e) e E. Customers located at the vertices have to be ...
