Compact, Convex Upper Bound Iteration for Approximate POMDP Planning
Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) are an intuitive and general way to model sequential decision making problems under uncertainty. Unfortunately, even approx...

Labeled Traveling Salesman Problems: Complexity and approximation
We consider labeled Traveling Salesman Problems, defined upon a complete graph of n vertices with colored edges. The objective is to find a tour of maximum or minimum number of co...

A Threshold of ln n for Approximating Set Cover
Given a collection Ᏺ of subsets of S ϭ {1, . . . , n}, set cover is the problem of selecting as few as possible subsets from Ᏺ such that their union covers S, and max k-cover ...

(BP)2: Beyond pairwise Belief Propagation labeling by approximating Kikuchi free energies
Belief Propagation (BP) can be very useful and efficient for performing approximate inference on graphs. But when the graph is very highly connected with strong conflicting intera...

Improved Approximation Algorithms for the Spanning Star Forest Problem
A star graph is a tree of diameter at most two. A star forest is a graph that consists of node-disjoint star graphs. In the spanning star forest problem, given an unweighted graph ...
