A note on maximizing a submodular set function subject to a knapsack constraint
TL;DR: An (1-e^-^1)-approximation algorithm for maximizing a nondecreasing submodular set function subject to a knapsack constraint is obtained and requires O(n^5) function value computations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pipage Rounding: A New Method of Constructing Algorithms with Proven Performance Guarantee
TL;DR: The paper presents a general method of designing constant-factor approximation algorithms for some discrete optimization problems with assignment-type constraints with better performance guarantees for some well-known problems including MAXIMUM COVERAGE, MAX CUT and some of their generalizations.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The Santa Claus problem
Nikhil Bansal,Maxim Sviridenko +1 more
TL;DR: This work considers the following problem: The Santa Claus has n presents that he wants to distribute among m kids, each kid has an arbitrary value for each present, and develops an O(log log m/log log log m) approximation algorithm for the restricted assignment case of the problem when pij,0 (i.e. when present j has either value p j or 0 for each kid).
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Tight approximation algorithms for maximum general assignment problems
TL;DR: The (1 - 1/e)-approximation algorithm is extended to a nonseparable assignment problem with applications in maximizing revenue for budget-constrained combinatorial auctions and the AdWords assignment problem and the existence of cycles of best response moves, and exponentially long best-response paths to (pure or sink) equilibria is proved.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Non-monotone submodular maximization under matroid and knapsack constraints
TL;DR: This paper gives the first constant-factor approximation algorithm for maximizing any non-negative submodular function subject to multiple matroid or knapsack constraints, and improves the approximation guarantee of the algorithm to 1/k+1+{1/k-1}+ε for k≥2 partition matroid constraints.
