Given a graph H = (V, F) with edge weights {w(e) : e F}, the weighted degree of a node v in H is {w(vu) : vu F}. We give bicriteria approximation algorithms for problems that see...
We study the problem of adding k new links to a directed graph G(V, E) in order to maximize the minimum PageRank value for a given subset of the nodes. We show that this problem is...
We present a new streaming algorithm for maintaining an -kernel of a point set in Rd using O((1/(d-1)/2 ) log(1/)) space. The space used by our algorithm is optimal up to a small ...
Abstract--We give sublinear-time approximation algorithms for some optimization problems arising in machine learning, such as training linear classifiers and finding minimum enclos...

Suppose you ran a chess tournament, everybody played everybody, and you wanted to use the results to rank everybody. Unless you were really lucky, the results would not be acyclic...
