Fast Approximate Graph Partitioning Algorithms
We study graph partitioning problems on graphs with edge capacities and vertex weights. The problems of b-balanced cuts and k-balanced partitions are unified into a new problem ca...

An Approximation Algorithm for Weighted Weak Vertex Cover Problem in Undirected Graphs
The problem of efficiently monitoring the network flow is regarded as the one to find out the minimum weighted weak vertex cover set for a given graph G = (V, E) with weight func...

Approximation Algorithms for Scheduling Parallel Jobs
Abstract. In this paper we study variants of the non-preemptive parallel job scheduling problem where the number of machines is polynomially bounded in the number of jobs. For this...

A Constant-Factor Approximation Algorithm for the Multicommodity
We present the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for network design with multiple commodities and economies of scale. We consider the rent-or-buy problem, a type of m...

Hybrid Least-Squares Algorithms for Approximate Policy Evaluation
The goal of approximate policy evaluation is to “best” represent a target value function according to a specific criterion. Temporal difference methods and Bellman residual m...
