This paper introduces a framework for clarifying and formalizing the duplicate document detection problem. Four distinct models are presented, each with a corresponding algorithm ...
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...
One of the classic results in scheduling theory is the 2-approximation algorithm by Lenstra, Shmoys, and Tardos for the problem of scheduling jobs to minimize makespan on unrelate...
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...
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. ...
