Fixing Max-Product: Convergent Message Passing Algorithms for MAP LP-Relaxations
We present a novel message passing algorithm for approximating the MAP problem in graphical models. The algorithm is similar in structure to max-product but unlike max-product it ...

A (1-1/e)-approximation algorithm for the generalized assignment problem
We give a (1 - 1/e)-approximation algorithm for the Max-Profit Generalized Assignment Problem (Max-GAP) with fixed profits when the profit (but not necessarily the size) of every ...

Approximating node connectivity problems via set covers
Given a graph (directed or undirected) with costs on the edges, and an integer k, we consider the problem of nding a k-node connected spanning subgraph of minimum cost. For the ge...

Quantum iterative algorithm for image reconstruction problems
Iterative algorithm based on quantum tunneling is proposed by making use of mean- eld approximation. W e apply our method to the problem of BW image reconstruction (IR). Its perfor...
