Lower Bounds on Streaming Algorithms for Approximating the Length of the Longest Increasing Subsequence
We show that any deterministic data-stream algorithm that makes a constant number of passes over the input and gives a constant factor approximation of the length of the longest i...

Incremental Algorithms for Approximate Compilation
Compilation is an important approach to a range of inference problems, since it enables linear-time inference in the size S of the compiled representation. However, the main drawb...

An approximation algorithm for the least overlapping p-Frame problem with non-partial coverage for networked robotic cameras
Abstract— We report our algorithmic development of the pframe problem that addresses the need of coordinating a set of p networked robotic pan-tilt-zoom cameras for n, (n > p)...

Deterministic construction of an approximate M-ellipsoid and its applications to derandomizing lattice algorithms
We give a deterministic O(log n)n -time and space algorithm for the Shortest Vector Problem (SVP) of a lattice under any norm, improving on the previous best deterministic nO(n) -...

Approximation Algorithms for Shortest Descending Paths in Terrains
A path from s to t on a polyhedral terrain is descending if the height of a point p never increases while we move p along the path from s to t. No efficient algorithm is known to ...
