Approximating Semidefinite Packing Programs
In this paper we define semidefinite packing programs and describe an algorithm to approximately solve these problems. Semidefinite packing programs arise in many applications s...

Clustering documents with an exponential-family approximation of the Dirichlet compound multinomial distribution
The Dirichlet compound multinomial (DCM) distribution, also called the multivariate Polya distribution, is a model for text documents that takes into account burstiness: the fact ...

Cube Summing, Approximate Inference with Non-Local Features, and Dynamic Programming without Semirings
We introduce cube summing, a technique that permits dynamic programming algorithms for summing over structures (like the forward and inside algorithms) to be extended with non-loc...

The Shortcut Problem - Complexity and Approximation
During the last years, speed-up techniques for DIJKSTRA’s algorithm have been developed that make the computation of shortest paths a matter of microseconds even on huge road net...
