Negative thinking by incremental problem solving: application to unate covering
We introduce a new technique to solve exactly a discrete optimization problem, based on the paradigm of “negative” thinking. The motivation is that when searching the space of...

Feasible and Accurate Algorithms for Covering Semidefinite Programs
In this paper we describe an algorithm to approximately solve a class of semidefinite programs called covering semidefinite programs. This class includes many semidefinite programs...

Approximations for minimum and min-max vehicle routing problems
: We consider a variety of vehicle routing problems. The input to a problem consists of a graph G = (N, E) and edge lengths l(e) e E. Customers located at the vertices have to be ...

Weakly Supervised Learning on Pre-image Problem in Kernel Methods
This paper presents a novel alternative approach, namely weakly supervised learning (WSL), to learn the pre-image of a feature vector in the feature space induced by a kernel. It ...
