A subset spanner for Planar graphs, : with application to subset TSP
Let > 0 be a constant. For any edge-weighted planar graph G and a subset S of nodes of G, there is a subgraph H of G of weight a constant times that of the minimum Steiner tree...

Coordinatized Kernels and Catalytic Reductions: An Improved FPT Algorithm for Max Leaf Spanning Tree and Other Problems
Abstract. We describe some new, simple and apparently general methods for designing FPT algorithms, and illustrate how these can be used to obtain a signi cantly improved FPT algor...

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...

Consistent Minimization of Clustering Objective Functions
Clustering is often formulated as a discrete optimization problem. The objective is to find, among all partitions of the data set, the best one according to some quality measure....
