Submodular Maximization by Simulated Annealing
We consider the problem of maximizing a nonnegative (possibly non-monotone) submodular set function with or without constraints. Feige et al. [9] showed a 2/5-approximation for th...

Approximating power indices
Many multiagent domains where cooperation among agents is crucial to achieving a common goal can be modeled as coalitional games. However, in many of these domains, agents are une...

Minimizing the Cost of Mine Selection Via Sensor Networks
— In this paper, we study sensor enabled landmine networks by formulating a minimum-cost mine selection problem. The problem arises in a target defence scenario, where the object...

Shrinkage algorithms for MMSE covariance estimation
We address covariance estimation in the sense of minimum mean-squared error (MMSE) when the samples are Gaussian distributed. Specifically, we consider shrinkage methods which are ...

Chromatic correlation clustering
We study a novel clustering problem in which the pairwise relations between objects are categorical. This problem can be viewed as clustering the vertices of a graph whose edges a...
