Epsilon-coresets for clustering (with outliers) in doubling metrics

L Huang, SHC Jiang, J Li, X Wu - 2018 IEEE 59th Annual …, 2018 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We study the problem of constructing ε-coresets for the (k, z)-clustering problem in a
doubling metric M (X, d). An ε-coreset is a weighted subset S⊆ X with weight function w: S→ …

We consider the classic Facility Location, k-Median, and k-Means problems in metric spaces
of doubling dimension d. We give nearly linear-time approximation schemes for each …

Novel properties of hierarchical probabilistic partitions and their algorithmic applications

Streaming algorithms for geometric Steiner forest

A Czumaj, SHC Jiang, R Krauthgamer… - ACM Transactions on …, 2024 - dl.acm.org
We consider a generalization of the Steiner tree problem, the Steiner forest problem, in the
Euclidean plane: the input is a multiset, partitioned into color classes. The goal is to find a …

A unified PTAS for prize collecting TSP and Steiner tree problem in doubling metrics

THH Chan, H Jiang, SHC Jiang - ACM Transactions on Algorithms …, 2020 - dl.acm.org
We present a unified (randomized) polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the
prize collecting traveling salesman problem (PCTSP) and the prize collecting Steiner tree …

Near-Optimal Dimension Reduction for Facility Location

L Huang, SHC Jiang, R Krauthgamer, D Yue - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
Oblivious dimension reduction,\{a} la the Johnson-Lindenstrauss (JL) Lemma, is a
fundamental approach for processing high-dimensional data. We study this approach for …

Model-Agnostic Approximation of Constrained Forest Problems

C Coupette, A Montaseri, C Lenzen - arXiv preprint arXiv:2407.14536, 2024 - arxiv.org
Constrained Forest Problems (CFPs) as introduced by Goemans and Williamson in 1995
capture a wide range of network design problems with edge subsets as solutions, such as …

Near-linear time approximation schemes for Steiner tree and forest in low-dimensional spaces

Y Bartal, LA Gottlieb - Proceedings of the 53rd Annual ACM SIGACT …, 2021 - dl.acm.org
We give an algorithm that computes a (1+ є)-approximate Steiner forest in near-linear time n·

Approximation Algorithms and Sketches for Clustering

D Saulpic - 2022 - theses.hal.science
This thesis presents contributions to the theoretical study of clustering problems. The broad
objective of these problems is to partition a data set into groups, such that data in the same …
