MAXCUT defines a classical NP-hard problem for graph partitioning and it serves as a typical case of the symmetric non-monotone Unconstrained Submodular Maximization (USM) problem. Applications of MAXCUT are abundant in machine learning, computer vision and statistical physics. Greedy algorithms to approximately solve MAXCUT rely on greedy vertex labelling or on an edge contraction strategy. These algorithms have been studied by measuring their approximation ratios in the worst case setting but very little is known to characterize their robustness to noise contaminations of the input data in the average case. Adapting the framework of Approximation Set Coding, we present a method to exactly measure the cardinality of the algorithmic approximation sets of five greedy MAXCUT algorithms. Their information contents are explored for graph instances generated by two different noise models: the edge reversal model and Gaussian edge weights model. The results provide insights into the robustness of different greedy heuristics and techniques for MAXCUT, which can be used for algorithm design of general USM problems.
We study the role of interactivity in distributed statistical inference under information constraints, e.g., communication constraints and local differential privacy. We focus on the tasks of goodness-of-fit testing and estimation of discrete distrib
Motivated by the use of high speed circuit switches in large scale data centers, we consider the problem of circuit switch scheduling. In this problem we are given demands between pairs of servers and the goal is to schedule at every time step a matc
In many signal processing applications, the aim is to reconstruct a signal that has a simple representation with respect to a certain basis or frame. Fundamental elements of the basis known as atoms allow us to define atomic norms that can be used to
Let $G=(V,E)$ be an undirected graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. We obtain the following new routing schemes: - A routing scheme for unweighted graphs that uses $tilde O(frac{1}{epsilon} n^{2/3})$ space at each vertex and $tilde O(1/epsilon)$-
Given a metric $(V,d)$ and a $textsf{root} in V$, the classic $textsf{$k$-TSP}$ problem is to find a tour originating at the $textsf{root}$ of minimum length that visits at least $k$ nodes in $V$. In this work, motivated by applications where the inp
