Fast Algorithms for Constant Approximation k-Means Clustering
In this paper we study the k-means clustering problem. It is well-known that the general version of this problem is NP-hard. Numerous approximation algorithms have been proposed fo...

Linear Time Algorithms for Clustering Problems in Any Dimensions
Abstract. We generalize the k-means algorithm presented by the authors [14] and show that the resulting algorithm can solve a larger class of clustering problems that satisfy certa...

Improved Approximation Algorithms for Bipartite Correlation Clustering
In this work we study the problem of Bipartite Correlation Clustering (BCC), a natural bipartite counterpart of the well studied Correlation Clustering (CC) problem. Given a bipart...
