Finding Metric Structure in Information Theoretic Clustering
We study the problem of clustering discrete probability distributions with respect to the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence. This problem arises naturally in many applications. Our...

An approximation algorithm for the fault tolerant metric facility location problem
We consider a fault tolerant version of the metric facility location problem in which every city, j, is required to be connected to rj facilities. We give the first non-trivial ap...

A primal-dual interpretation of two 2-approximation algorithms for the feedback vertex set problem in undirected graphs
Recently, Becker and Geiger and Bafna, Berman and Fujito gave 2-approximation algorithms for the feedback vertex set problem in undirected graphs. We show how their algorithms can...
