A constant-factor approximation for stochastic Steiner forest
We consider the stochastic Steiner forest problem: suppose we were given a collection of Steiner forest instances, and were guaranteed that a random one of these instances would a...

Approximate nearest neighbors and the fast Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform
We introduce a new low-distortion embedding of d 2 into O(log n) p (p = 1, 2), called the Fast-Johnson-LindenstraussTransform. The FJLT is faster than standard random projections ...

Approximate query mapping: Accounting for translation closeness
Abstract In this paper we present a mechanism for approximately translating Boolean query constraints across heterogeneous information sources. Achieving the best translation is ch...

Approximating dynamic global illumination in image space
Physically plausible illumination at real-time framerates is often achieved using approximations. One popular example is ambient occlusion (AO), for which very simple and efficie...
