A Primal-Dual Approximation Algorithm for Partial Vertex Cover: Making Educated Guesses
We study the partial vertex cover problem. Given a graph G = (V, E), a weight function w : V → R+ , and an integer s, our goal is to cover all but s edges, by picking a set of v...

Two-dimensional packing with conflicts
We study the two-dimensional version of the bin packing problem with conflicts. We are given a set of (two-dimensional) squares V = {1, 2, . . . , n} with sides s1, s2 . . . , sn ...

The Set Cover with Pairs Problem
Abstract. We consider a generalization of the set cover problem, in which elements are covered by pairs of objects, and we are required to find a minimum cost subset of objects th...

Efficient Planning in Large POMDPs through Policy Graph Based Factorized Approximations
Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) are widely used for planning under uncertainty. In many applications, the huge size of the POMDP state space makes straightf...

The importance of being biased
The Minimum Vertex Cover problem is the problem of, given a graph, finding a smallest set of vertices that touches all edges. We show that it is NP-hard to approximate this proble...
