To efficiently find global patterns from a multi-database, information in each local database must first be mined and summarized at the local level. Then only the summarized infor...
Let H be a graph, and let CH(G) be the number of (subgraph isomorphic) copies of H contained in a graph G. We investigate the fundamental problem of estimating CH(G). Previous res...
We consider the problem of max-min fair allocation of indivisible goods. Our focus will be on the restricted version of the problem in which there are m items, each of which assoc...
Let C be a class of probability distributions over a finite set . A function D : {0, 1}m is a disperser for C with entropy threshold k and error if for any distribution X in C s...
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...
