Approximate L0 constrained non-negative matrix and tensor factorization
— Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF), i.e. V ≈ WH where both V, W and H are non-negative has become a widely used blind source separation technique due to its part based r...

Sensor Network Localization Using Sensor Perturbation
—Sensor network localization is an instance of the NP-HARD graph realization problem. Thus, methods used in practice are not guaranteed to find the correct localization, even if...

A Weakly Robust PTAS for Minimum Clique Partition in Unit Disk Graphs
We consider the problem of partitioning the set of vertices of a given unit disk graph (UDG) into a minimum number of cliques. The problem is NP-hard and various constant factor a...

Free Bits, PCPs, and Nonapproximability-Towards Tight Results
This paper continues the investigation of the connection between probabilistically checkable proofs (PCPs) and the approximability of NP-optimization problems. The emphasis is on p...

On characterizations of truthful mechanisms for combinatorial auctions and scheduling
We characterize truthful mechanisms in two multi-parameter domains. The first characterization shows that every mechanism for combinatorial auctions with two subadditive bidders t...
