A fast approximate joint diagonalization algorithm using a criterion with a block diagonal weight matrix
We propose a new algorithm for Approximate Joint Diagonalization (AJD) with two main advantages over existing state-of-the-art algorithms: Improved overall running speed, especial...

Improved approximation algorithms for rectangle tiling and packing
We provide improved approximation algorithms for several rectangle tiling and packing problems (RTILE, DRTILE and d-RPACK) studied in the literature. Our algorithms are highly eff...

On Exact and Approximation Algorithms for Distinguishing Substring Selection
Abstract. The NP-complete Distinguishing Substring Selection problem (DSSS for short) asks, given a set of “good” strings and a set of “bad” strings, for a solution string ...

Two Algorithms for the Minimum Enclosing Ball Problem
Given A := {a1, . . . , am} Rn and > 0, we propose and analyze two algorithms for the problem of computing a (1 + )-approximation to the radius of the minimum enclosing ball o...
