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

Streaming Robust Submodular Maximization: A Partitioned Thresholding Approach

Volkan Cevher, Ilija Bogunovic, Slobodan Mitrovic, Ashkan Norouzi Fard, Jakub Tarnawski

We study the classical problem of maximizing a monotone submodular function subject to a cardinality constraint k, with two additional twists: (i) elements arrive in a streaming fashion and (ii) m items from the algorithm’s memory might be removed after th ...

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 ...

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 ...

Maximizing Symmetric Submodular Functions

Moran Feldman

Symmetric submodular functions are an important family of submodular functions capturing many interesting cases, including cut functions of graphs and hypergraphs. Maximization of such functions subject to various constraints receives little attention by c ...

GDSP: A graphical perspective on the distributed storage systems

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Saeid Sahraei

The classical distributed storage problem can be modeled by a k-uniform complete hyper-graph where vertices represent servers and hyper-edges represent users. Hence each hyper-edge should be able to recover the full file using only the memories of the vert ...

A Distributed Algorithm for Partitioned Robust Submodular Maximization

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

Abstract—In this paper, we consider the problem of maximizing a monotone submodular function subject to a cardinality constraint, with two added twists: The computation is distributed across a number of machines, and we require the solution to be robust ag ...

Network Flow Integer Programming to Track Elliptical Cells in Time-Lapse Sequences

Pascal Fua, Engin Türetken, Xinchao Wang, Carlos Joaquin Becker

We propose a novel approach to automatically tracking elliptical cell populations in time-lapse image sequences. Given an initial segmentation, we account for partial occlusions and overlaps by generating an over-complete set of competing detection hypothe ...

Independence number of generalized Petersen graphs

Javad Ebrahimi Boroojeni

Determining the size of a maximum independent set of a graph G, denoted by alpha(G), is an NP-hard problem. Therefore many attempts are made to find upper and lower bounds, or exact values of alpha(G) for special classes of graphs. This paper is aimed towa ...

Approximation algorithms for geometric dispersion

Alfonso Bolívar Cevallos Manzano

The most basic form of the max-sum dispersion problem (MSD) is as follows: given n points in R^q and an integer k, select a set of k points such that the sum of the pairwise distances within the set is maximal. This is a prominent diversity problem, with w ...
