Verified Approximation Algorithms [PDF]
We present the first formal verification of approximation algorithms for NP-complete optimization problems: vertex cover, independent set, set cover, center selection, load balancing, and bin packing.

A Survey on Approximation in Parameterized Complexity: Hardness and Algorithms
Parameterization and approximation are two popular ways of coping with NP-hard problems. More recently, the two have also been combined to derive many interesting results.

Approximation algorithms [PDF]
Increasing global competition, rapidly changing markets, and greater consumer awareness have altered the way in which corporations do business. To become more efficient, many industries have sought to model some operational aspects by gigantic optimization problems. It is not atypical to encounter models that capture 10

An Approximation Algorithm for Approximation Rank [PDF]
One of the strongest techniques available for showing lower bounds on quantum communication complexity is the logarithm of the approximation rank of the communication matrix--the minimum rank of a matrix which is entrywise close to the communication matrix.

Approximation algorithm for the multicovering problem [PDF]
Let $\mathcal{H}=(V,\mathcal{E})$ be a hypergraph with maximum edge size $\ell$ and maximum degree $Δ$. For given numbers $b_v\in \mathbb{N}_{\geq 2}$, $v\in V$, a set multicover in $\mathcal{H}$ is a set of edges $C \subseteq \mathcal{E}$ such that every vertex $v$ in $V$ belongs to at least $b_v$ edges in $C$. Set Multicover is the problem of finding

An overview on polynomial approximation of NP-hard problems [PDF]
The fact that polynomial time algorithm is very unlikely to be devised for an optimal solving of the NP-hard problems strongly motivates both the researchers and the practitioners to try to solve such problems heuristically, by making a trade-off between

Influence Circle Covering in Large-Scale Social Networks: A Shift Approach
Given a specific propagation speed $h$ in a social network $G(V, E)$ , an influence circle(IC) of a node $s$ in time $t$ is a node set of its influenced nodes, where the distance between $s$ and its expected influenced node $w$ is less than ...

Coresets for the Average Case Error for Finite Query Sets
Coreset is usually a small weighted subset of an input set of items, that provably approximates their loss function for a given set of queries (models, classifiers, hypothesis). That is, the maximum (worst-case) error over all queries is bounded.
