Extracting Certainty from Uncertainty: Regret Bounded by Variation in Costs
Prediction from expert advice is a fundamental problem in machine learning. A major pillar of the field is the existence of learning algorithms whose average loss approaches that ...

On Complexity of Optimal Recombination for Binary Representations of Solutions
We consider an optimization problem of finding the best possible offspring as a result of a recombination operator in an evolutionary algorithm, given two parent solutions. The op...

Approximating Maximum Subgraphs without Short Cycles
We study approximation algorithms, integrality gaps, and hardness of approximation, of two problems related to cycles of "small" length k in a given graph. The instance f...

A hierarchical clustering algorithm based on the Hungarian method
We propose a novel hierarchical clustering algorithm for data-sets in which only pairwise distances between the points are provided. The classical Hungarian method is an efficient...
