Decision trees for entity identification: approximation algorithms and hardness results
We consider the problem of constructing decision trees for entity identification from a given relational table. The input is a table containing information about a set of entities...

Improved Absolute Approximation Ratios for Two-Dimensional Packing Problems
Abstract. We consider the two-dimensional bin packing and strip packing problem, where a list of rectangles has to be packed into a minimal number of rectangular bins or a strip of...

On Complexity and Approximability of the Labeled Maximum/Perfect Matching Problems
In this paper, we deal with both the complexity and the approximability of the labeled perfect matching problem in bipartite graphs. Given a simple graph G = (V, E) with n vertices...

Approximate Distance Oracles for Graphs with Dense Clusters
Let G be a graph containing N disjoint t-spanners that are inter-connected with M edges. We present an algorithm that constructs a data structure of size O(M2 + n log n) that answ...
