We study Matching and other related problems in a partial information setting where the agents' utilities for being matched to other agents are hidden and the mechanism only has access to ordinal preference information. Our model is…

Greedy algorithms are central to sparse approximation and stage-wise learning methods such as matching pursuit and boosting. It is known that the Power-Relaxed Greedy Algorithm with step sizes $m^{-\alpha}$ may fail to converge when…

We consider a general task called partial Wasserstein covering with the goal of providing information on what patterns are not being taken into account in a dataset (e.g., dataset used during development) compared with another dataset(e.g.,…

Motivated by the fact that in several cases a matching in a graph is stable if and only if it is produced by a greedy algorithm, we study the problem of computing a maximum weight greedy matching on weighted graphs, termed GreedyMatching.…

We study the problem of scheduling sensors in a resource-constrained linear dynamical system, where the objective is to select a small subset of sensors from a large network to perform the state estimation task. We formulate this problem as…

We introduce a new ``greedy cleaning'' model where a star-like state space (containing N half-lines connected by the origin) is covered by a homogeneous Poisson process of ``dust particles'', and N^{\alpha} cleaners/workers proceed with…

We analyze greedy routing in a random graph G_n constructed on the vertex set V = {1, 2, ..., n} embedded in Z. Vertices are inserted according to a uniform random permutation pi, and each newly inserted vertex connects to its nearest…

Many image processing applications benefited remarkably from the theory of sparsity. One model of sparsity is the cosparse analysis one. It was shown that using l_1-minimization one might stably recover a cosparse signal from a small set of…
