Given a positive integer n and a positive semidefinite matrix A = (Aij ) ∈ Rm×m the positive semidefinite Grothendieck problem with rank-nconstraint is (SDPn) maximize mX i=1 ...
A star forest is a collection of vertex-disjoint trees of depth at most 1, and its size is the number of leaves in all its components. A spanning star forest of a given graph G is ...
We improve the approximation ratios for two optimization problems in planar graphs. For node-weighted Steiner tree, a classical network-optimization problem, the best achievable ap...

Radial functions are a powerful tool in many areas of multidimensional approximation, especially when dealing with scattered data. We present a fast approximate algorithm for the ...
The AI literature contains many definitions of diagnostic reasoning most of which are defined in terms of the logical entailment relation. We use existing work on approximate en...
