Improved results for directed multicut
We give a simple algorithm for the MINIMUM DIRECTED MULTICUT problem, and show that it gives an Ç´ÔÒµapproximation. This improves on the previous approximation guarantee of Ã...

The empirical behavior of sampling methods for stochastic programming
Abstract. We investigate the quality of solutions obtained from sample-average approximations to two-stage stochastic linear programs with recourse. We use a recently developed sof...

A Probabilistic Framework for SVM Regression and Error Bar Estimation
In this paper, we elaborate on the well-known relationship between Gaussian Processes (GP) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) under some convex assumptions for the loss functions. ...
