Linear Time Algorithms for Generalized Edge Dominating Set Problems
Abstract. In this paper we consider a generalization of the edge dominating set (EDS) problem, in which each edge e needs to be covered be times and refer to this as the b-EDS prob...

Approximately Global Optimization for Robust Alignment of Generalized Shapes
—In this paper, we introduce a novel method to solve shape alignment problems. We use gray-scale “images” to represent source shapes, and propose a novel two-component Gaussi...

Approximation algorithms via contraction decomposition
We prove that the edges of every graph of bounded (Euler) genus can be partitioned into any prescribed number k of pieces such that contracting any piece results in a graph of bou...

Improved approximation algorithms for multidimensional bin packing problems
In this paper we introduce a new general framework for set covering problems, based on the combination of randomized rounding of the (near-)optimal solution of the Linear Programm...
