Polynomial time approximation schemes for dense instances of NP-hard problems
We present a unified framework for designing polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for “dense” instances of many NP-hard optimization problems, including maximum cut,...

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...

Shape Indexing Using Approximate Nearest-Neighbour Search in High-Dimensional Spaces
Shape indexing is a way of making rapid associations between features detected in an image and object models that could have produced them. When model databases are large, the use...

Approximate majorization and fair online load balancing
This paper relates the notion of fairness in online routing and load balancing to vector majorization as developed by Hardy, Littlewood, and Polya 9]. We de ne -supermajorization ...

Cycle Cover with Short Cycles
Cycle covering is a well-studied problem in computer science. In this paper, we develop approximation algorithms for variants of cycle covering problems which bound the size and/o...
