Cycle Cover with Short Cycles
Cycle covering is a well-studied problem in computer science. In this paper, we develop approximation algorithms for variants of cycle covering problems which bound the size and/o...

A polylogarithmic approximation of the minimum bisection
A bisection of a graph with n vertices is a partition of its vertices into two sets, each of size n/2. The bisection cost is the number of edges connecting the two sets. The proble...

Floating-point L2-approximations to functions
In the present paper, we investigate the approximation of a function by a polynomial with floating-point coefficients; we are looking for the best approximation in the L2 sense....

Reinforcement learning with function approximation for cooperative navigation tasks
— In this paper, we propose a reinforcement learning approach to address multi-robot cooperative navigation tasks in infinite settings. We propose an algorithm to simultaneously...

Approximating edit distance in near-linear time
We show how to compute the edit distance between two strings of length n up to a factor of 2 ~O( log n) in n1+o(1) time. This is the first sub-polynomial approximation algorithm f...
