Procurement Auctions via Approximately Optimal Submodular Optimization [PDF]

open access: yes
We study procurement auctions, where an auctioneer seeks to acquire services from strategic sellers with private costs. The quality of services is measured by a submodular function known to the auctioneer.

Active Learning and Submodular Functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Washington, 2012Active learning is a machine learning setting where the learning algorithm decides what data is labeled. Submodular functions are a class of set functions for which many optimization problems have efficient ...

Submodular Minimax Optimization: Finding Effective Sets

open access: yes, 2023
Despite the rich existing literature about minimax optimization in continuous settings, only very partial results of this kind have been obtained for combinatorial settings.

Dynamic Stepsize Techniques in DR-Submodular Maximization

open access: yesMathematics
The Diminishing-Return (DR)-submodular function maximization problem has garnered significant attention across various domains in recent years. Classic methods often employ continuous greedy or Frank–Wolfe approaches to tackle this problem; however, high

Optimization beyond a single submodular function: Submodular optimization for ranking, decision trees and diversity.

open access: yes, 2022
Submodulära funktioner karakteriserar matematiskt den allestädes närvarande egenskapen ``minskande avkastning''. De används ofta för att beskriva kärnämnen i många tillämpningar, inklusive ekonomisk nytta, redundans i information, spridning av inflytande i sociala nätverk och mer.

Community-Aware Two-Stage Diversification for Social Media User Recommendation with Graph Neural Networks

open access: yesInformation
The occurrence of filter bubbles and echo chambers in social media recommendation systems poses a significant threat to information diversity and democratic discourse. Although graph neural networks (GNNs) achieve leading accuracy in user recommendation,

Sensor Array Design Through Submodular Optimization

open access: yes, 2019
© 1963-2012 IEEE. We consider the problem of far-field sensing by means of a sensor array. Traditional array geometry design techniques are agnostic to prior information about the far-field scene.

Fast semidifferential-based submodular function optimization

open access: yes, 2013
We present a practical and powerful new framework for both unconstrained and constrained submodular function optimization based on discrete semidifferentials (sub- and super-differentials).

Learning Interpretable Decision Rule Sets: A Submodular Optimization Approach

open access: yes, 2022
Rule sets are highly interpretable logical models in which the predicates for decision are expressed in disjunctive normal form (DNF, OR-of-ANDs), or, equivalently, the overall model comprises an unordered collection of if-then decision rules.
