An algebraic approach for H-matrix preconditioners
Hierarchical matrices (H-matrices) approximate matrices in a data-sparse way, and the approximate arithmetic for H-matrices is almost optimal. In this paper we present an algebrai...

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...

Approximate Marginals in Latent Gaussian Models
We consider the problem of improving the Gaussian approximate posterior marginals computed by expectation propagation and the Laplace method in latent Gaussian models and propose ...

Approximating the Stochastic Knapsack Problem: The Benefit of Adaptivity
We consider a stochastic variant of the NP-hard 0/1 knapsack problem in which item values are deterministic and item sizes are independent random variables with known, arbitrary d...

Fast Approximated SIFT
We propose a considerably faster approximation of the well known SIFT method. The main idea is to use efficient data structures for both, the detector and the descriptor. The detec...
