Approximating Optimal Binary Decision Trees
Abstract. We give a (ln n + 1)-approximation for the decision tree (DT) problem. An instance of DT is a set of m binary tests T = (T1, . . . , Tm) and a set of n items X = (X1, . ....

Approximating TSP on metrics with bounded global growth
The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is a canonical NP-complete problem which is known to be MAXSNP hard even on Euclidean metrics (of high dimensions) [40]. In order to circumven...

Better approximation algorithms for bin covering
Bin covering takes as input a list of items with sizes in (0 1) and places them into bins of unit demand so as to maximize the number of bins whose demand is satis ed. This is in ...

Approximate Query Answering by Model Averaging
In earlier work we have introduced and explored a variety of different probabilistic models for the problem of answering selectivity queries posed to large sparse binary data set...

Approximation algorithms for partially covering with edges
The edge dominating set (EDS) and edge cover (EC) problems are classical graph covering problems in which one seeks a minimum cost collection of edges which covers the edges or ve...
