Approximate nearest-subspace representations for sound mixtures
In this paper we present a novel approach to describe sound mixtures which is based on a geometric viewpoint. In this approach we extend the idea of a nearest-neighbor representat...

A polynomial-time approximation scheme for planar multiway cut
Given an undirected graph with edge lengths and a subset of nodes (called the terminals), the multiway cut (also called the multi-terminal cut) problem asks for a subset of edges,...

Approximating Weighted Max-SAT Problems by Compensating for Relaxations
We introduce a new approach to approximating weighted Max-SAT problems that is based on simplifying a given instance, and then tightening the approximation. First, we relax its str...

Greedy Approximation via Duality for Packing, Combinatorial Auctions and Routing
We study simple greedy approximation algorithms for general class of integer packing problems. We provide a novel analysis based on the duality theory of linear programming. This e...

Hardness and approximation of minimum distortion embeddings
We show that the problem of computing a minimum distortion embedding of a given graph into a path remains NP-hard when the input graph is restricted to a bipartite, cobipartite, o...
