Improved Approximation for Guarding Simple Galleries from the Perimeter
We provide an O(log log OPT)-approximation algorithm for the problem of guarding a simple polygon with guards on the perimeter. We first design a polynomial-time algorithm for bui...

A Distance-Based Over-Sampling Method for Learning from Imbalanced Data Sets
Many real-world domains present the problem of imbalanced data sets, where examples of one classes significantly outnumber examples of other classes. This makes learning difficu...

Approximate Lasserre Integrality Gap for Unique Games
In this paper, we investigate whether a constant round Lasserre Semi-definite Programming (SDP) relaxation might give a good approximation to the UNIQUE GAMES problem. We show tha...

Efficient Algorithms for Eulerian Extension
Eulerian extension problems aim at making a given (directed) (multi-)graph Eulerian by adding a minimum-cost set of edges (arcs). These problems have natural applications in schedu...

Algorithms for data migration with cloning
Our work is motivated by the problem of managing data on storage devices, typically a set of disks. Such high demand storage servers are used as web servers, or multimedia servers...
