Absolute polynomial factorization in two variables and the knapsack problem
A recent algorithmic procedure for computing the absolute factorization of a polynomial P(X, Y ), after a linear change of coordinates, is via a factorization modulo X3 . This was...

Lifetime Maximization of Monitoring Sensor Networks
We study the problem of maximizing the lifetime of a sensor network assigned to monitor a given area. Our main result is a linear time dual approximation algorithm that comes arbit...

Reducing mechanism design to algorithm design via machine learning
We use techniques from sample-complexity in machine learning to reduce problems of incentive-compatible mechanism design to standard algorithmic questions, for a broad class of re...

Horn Upper Bounds and Renaming
Abstract. We consider the problem of computing tractable approximations to CNF formulas, extending the approach of Selman and Kautz to compute the Horn-LUB to involve renaming of v...

The Generalized FITC Approximation
We present an efficient generalization of the sparse pseudo-input Gaussian process (SPGP) model developed by Snelson and Ghahramani [1], applying it to binary classification pro...
