Approximation Algorithms for Submodular Multiway Partition
Abstract— We study algorithms for the SUBMODULAR MULTIWAY PARTITION problem (SUB-MP). An instance of SUB-MP consists of a finite ground set V , a subset S = {s1, s2, . . . , sk}...

Tight Results on Minimum Entropy Set Cover
In the minimum entropy set cover problem, one is given a collection of k sets which collectively cover an n-element ground set. A feasible solution of the problem is a partition o...
