Dynamic Facility Location via Exponential Clocks

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Ashkan Norouzi Fard, Hyung Chan An

The dynamic facility location problem is a generalization of the classic facility location problem proposed by Eisenstat, Mathieu, and Schabanel to model the dynamics of evolving social/infrastructure networks. The generalization lies in that the distance ...

The weighted stable matching problem

Linda Farczadi

We study the stable matching problem in non-bipartite graphs with incomplete but strict preference lists, where the edges have weights and the goal is to compute a stable matching of minimum or maximum weight. This problem is known to be NP-hard in general ...

On Computing Breakpoint Distances for Genomes with Duplicate Genes

Bernard Moret, Mingfu Shao

A fundamental problem in comparative genomics is to compute the distance between two genomes in terms of its higher level organization (given by genes or syntenic blocks). For two genomes without duplicate genes, we can easily define (and almost always eff ...

LP-Based Algorithms For Capacitated Facility Location

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Hyung Chan An

Linear programming (LP) has played a key role in the study of algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems. In the field of approximation algorithms, this is well illustrated by the uncapacitated facility location problem. A variety of algorithmic me ...

Cybersecurity Solutions for Active Power Distribution Networks

Teklemariam Tsegay Tesfay

An active distribution network (ADN) is an electrical-power distribution network that implements a real-time monitoring and control of the electrical resources and the grid. Effective monitoring and control is realised by deploying a large number of sensin ...

On verifying causal consistency

Rachid Guerraoui, Jad Hamza

Causal consistency is one of the most adopted consistency criteria for distributed implementations of data structures. It ensures that operations are executed at all sites according to their causal precedence. We address the issue of verifying automaticall ...

Robust Submodular Maximization: A Non-Uniform Partitioning Approach

Volkan Cevher, Jonathan Mark Scarlett, Ilija Bogunovic, Slobodan Mitrovic

We study the problem of maximizing a monotone submodular function subject to a cardinality constraint

k

, with the added twist that a number of items

\tau

from the returned set may be removed. We focus on the worst-case setting considered in Orlin et al ...

An integer programming approach to scheduling the transshipment of products at cross-docks in less-than-truckload industries

Mohammad Yousef Maknoon

This paper introduces an exact method to schedule the internal transshipment process at cross-docks in less-than-truckload industries. An integer programming formulation is presented to minimize the cost of double handling by synchronizing two types of dec ...

Subdeterminant Maximization via Nonconvex Relaxations and Anti-Concentration

Nisheeth Vishnoi, Javad Ebrahimi Boroojeni, Damian Mateusz Straszak

Several fundamental problems that arise in optimization and computer science can be cast as follows: Given vectors v(1), ..., v(m) is an element of R-d and a constraint family B subset of 2([m]), find a set S. B that maximizes the squared volume of the sim ...

Group-Sparse Model Selection: Hardness and Relaxations

Volkan Cevher, Anastasios Kyrillidis, Luca Baldassarre, Nirav Bhan

Group-based sparsity models are proven instrumental in linear regression problems for recovering signals from much fewer measurements than standard compressive sensing. The main promise of these models is the recovery of ``interpretable" signals along with ...
