Constant-Time Approximation Algorithms via Local Improvements
We present a technique for transforming classical approximation algorithms into constant-time algorithms that approximate the size of the optimal solution. Our technique is applic...

Approximations by Smooth Transitions in Binary Space Partitions
This work proposes a simple approximation scheme for discrete data that leads to an infinitely smooth result without global optimization. It combines the flexibility of Binary Sp...

Efficient Digital Pre-filtering for Least-Squares Linear Approximation
In this paper we propose a very simple FIR pre-filter based method for near optimal least-squares linear approximation of discrete time signals. A digital pre-processing filter,...

Approximation Algorithms for Single-minded Envy-free Profit-maximization Problems with Limited Supply
We present the first polynomial-time approximation algorithms for single-minded envy-free profit-maximization problems [13] with limited supply. Our algorithms return a pricing sc...

Error minimization in approximate range aggregates
Histogram techniques have been used in many commercial database management systems to estimate a query result size. Recently, it has been shown that they are very effective to su...
