Improved Approximation Algorithms for Bipartite Correlation Clustering
In this work we study the problem of Bipartite Correlation Clustering (BCC), a natural bipartite counterpart of the well studied Correlation Clustering (CC) problem. Given a bipart...

Improved Approximations for TSP with Simple Precedence Constraints
In this paper, we consider variants of the traveling salesman problem with precedence constraints. We characterize hard input instances for Christofides' algorithm and Hoogeve...

On the Decomposition and Concurrent Resolution of a Planning Problem
Planning is known to be a difficult task. One of the approaches used to reduce this difficulty is problem decomposition under divide-and-conquer methodology. This paper introduce...

A Fast Bit-Vector Algorithm for Approximate String Matching Based on Dynamic Programming
The approximate string matching problem is to find all locations at which a query of length m matches a substring of a text of length n with k-or-fewer differences. Simple and prac...

Scheduling with Precedence Constraints of Low Fractional Dimension
Abstract. We consider the single machine scheduling problem to minimize the average weighted completion time under precedence constrains. Improving on the various 2-approximation a...
