Approximation schemes for minimum 2-edge-connected and biconnected subgraphs in planar graphs
Given an undirected graph, finding either a minimum 2-edge-connected spanning subgraph or a minimum 2vertex-connected (biconnected) spanning subgraph is MaxSNP-hard. We show that ...

On Approximating the Number of Relevant Variables in a Function
In this work we consider the problem of approximating the number of relevant variables in a function given query access to the function. Since obtaining a multiplicative factor ap...

Geometric Optimization Problems Over Sliding Windows
Abstract. We study the problem of maintaining a (1+ )-factor approximation of the diameter of a stream of points under the sliding window model. In one dimension, we give a simple ...

Approximate inference by Markov chains on union spaces
A standard method for approximating averages in probabilistic models is to construct a Markov chain in the product space of the random variables with the desired equilibrium distr...

UOBYQA: unconstrained optimization by quadratic approximation
UOBYQA is a new algorithm for general unconstrained optimization calculations, that takes account of the curvature of the objective function, F say, by forming quadratic models by ...
