LP Rounding Approximation Algorithms for Stochastic Network Design
Real-world networks often need to be designed under uncertainty, with only partial information and predictions of demand available at the outset of the design process. The field ...

A quasi-polynomial time approximation scheme for Euclidean capacitated vehicle routing
In the capacitated vehicle routing problem, introduced by Dantzig and Ramser in 1959, we are given the locations of n customers and a depot, along with a vehicle of capacity k, an...

Least-Squares Approximation by Pythagorean Hodograph Spline Curves Via an Evolution Process
The problem of approximating a given set of data points by splines composed of Pythagorean Hodograph (PH) curves is addressed. In order to solve this highly non-linear problem, we ...

An Improved Approximation Scheme for Computing Arrow-Debreu Prices for the Linear Case
Recently, Jain, Mahdian and Saberi [5] had given a FPTAS for the problem of computing a market equilibrium in the Arrow-Debreu setting, when the utilities are linear functions. The...

Estimation and Approximation Bounds for Gradient-Based Reinforcement Learning
We model reinforcement learning as the problem of learning to control a Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (  ¢¡¤£¦¥§  ), and focus on gradient ascent approache...
