How useful are approximations to mean and variance of the index of dissimilarity?
Sociologists, demographers, and economists often use the index of dissimilarity, D, to describe the extent of racial, ethnic, spatial, or areal dissimilarity (or segregation) of d...

Linear time approximation schemes for the Gale-Berlekamp game and related minimization problems
We design a linear time approximation scheme for the GaleBerlekamp Switching Game and generalize it to a wider class of dense fragile minimization problems including the Nearest C...

Approximation Algorithms for Tensor Clustering
Abstract. We present the first (to our knowledge) approximation algorithm for tensor clustering—a powerful generalization to basic 1D clustering. Tensors are increasingly common...

Reachability Analysis of Nonlinear Systems Using Conservative Approximation
Abstract. In this paper we present an approach to approximate reachability computation for nonlinear continuous systems. Rather than studying a complex nonlinear system ˙x = g(x),...

Approximate predictive state representations
Predictive state representations (PSRs) are models that represent the state of a dynamical system as a set of predictions about future events. The existing work with PSRs focuses ...
