A more efficient approximation scheme for tree alignment
We present a new polynomial time approximation scheme (PTAS) for tree alignment, which is an important variant of multiple sequence alignment. As in the existing PTASs in the liter...

Approximation Schemes for Scheduling
We discuss scheduling problems with m identical machines and n jobs where each job has to be assigned to some machine. The goal is to optimize objective functions that solely depe...

Approximating maximum satisfiable subsystems of linear equations of bounded width
We consider the problem known as MAX-SATISFY: given a system of m linear equations over the rationals, find a maximum set of equations that can be satisfied. Let r be the width of...

An approximation ratio for biclustering
The problem of biclustering consists of the simultaneous clustering of rows and columns of a matrix such that each of the submatrices induced by a pair of row and column clusters ...

ProApproX: a lightweight approximation query processor over probabilistic trees
We demonstrate a system for querying probabilistic XML documents with simple XPath queries. A user chooses between a variety of query answering techniques, both exact and approxim...
