Streaming and Matching Problems with Submodular Functions

Submodular functions are a widely studied topic in theoretical computer science. They have found several applications both theoretical and practical in the fields of economics, combinatorial optimization and machine learning. More recently, there have also ...

Online Contention Resolution Schemes With Applications To Bayesian Selection Problems

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Moran Feldman, Rico Zenklusen

We introduce a new rounding technique designed for online optimization problems, which is related to contention resolution schemes, a technique initially introduced in the context of submodular function maximization. Our rounding technique, which we call o ...

Performance guarantees of forward and reverse greedy algorithms for minimizing nonsupermodular nonsubmodular functions on a matroid

Maryam Kamgarpour, Orcun Karaca

This letter studies the problem of minimizing increasing set functions, equivalently, maximizing decreasing set functions, over the base matroid. This setting has received great interest, since it generalizes several applied problems including actuator and ...

Actuator Placement under Structural Controllability using Forward and Reverse Greedy Algorithms

Maryam Kamgarpour, Tyler Summers, Baiwei Guo, Orcun Karaca

Actuator placement is an active field of research which has received significant attention for its applications in complex dynamical networks. In this paper, we study the problem of finding a set of actuator placements minimizing the metric that measures t ...

Scale-dependent measure of network centrality from diffusion dynamics

Alexis Arnaudon

Classic measures of graph centrality capture distinct aspects of node importance, from the local (e.g., degree) to the global (e.g., closeness). Here we exploit the connection between diffusion and geometry to introduce a multiscale centrality measure. A n ...

Entropic Matroids and Their Representation

Emmanuel Abbé

This paper investigates entropic matroids, that is, matroids whose rank function is given as the Shannon entropy of random variables. In particular, we consider p-entropic matroids, for which the random variables each have support of cardinality p. We draw ...

An Improved Analysis of Local Search for Max-Sum Diversification

Friedrich Eisenbrand, Rico Zenklusen, Alfonso Bolívar Cevallos Manzano

We present new techniques to analyze natural local search algorithms for several variants of the max-sum diversification problem which, in its most basic form, is as follows: given an n-point set X subset of R-d and an integer k, select k points in X so th ...

Actuator Placement for Optimizing Network Performance under Controllability Constraints

Maryam Kamgarpour, Tyler Summers, Baiwei Guo, Orcun Karaca

With the rising importance of large-scale network control, the problem of actuator placement has received increasing attention. Our goal in this paper is to find a set of actuators minimizing the metric that measures the average energy consumption of the c ...

Monopulse Beam Synthesis Using a Sparse Single Layer of Weights

Semin Kwak

A conventional monopulse radar system uses three beams, namely, sum beam, elevation difference beam, and azimuth difference beam, which require different layers of weights to synthesize each beam independently. Since the multilayer structure increases the ...

Designing Coalition-Proof Reverse Auctions Over Continuous Goods

Maryam Kamgarpour, Orcun Karaca

This paper investigates reverse auctions that involve continuous values of different types of goods, general nonconvex constraints, and second stage costs. We seek to design the payment rules and conditions under which coalitions of participants cannot inf ...
