A deterministic approximation algorithm is presented for the maximization of non-monotone submodular functions over a ground set of size $n$ subject to cardinality constraint $k$; the algorithm is based upon the idea of interlacing two…
We study the problem of maximizing a monotone submodular function subject to a matroid constraint, and present for it a deterministic non-oblivious local search algorithm that has an approximation guarantee of $1 - 1/e - \varepsilon$ (for…
We study the problem of maximizing a monotone submodular function subject to a matroid constraint and present a deterministic algorithm that achieves (1/2 + {\epsilon})-approximation for the problem. This algorithm is the first…
Submodular maximization is one of the central topics in combinatorial optimization. It has found numerous applications in the real world. In the past decades, a series of algorithms have been proposed for this problem. However, most of the…
It is known that greedy methods perform well for maximizing monotone submodular functions. At the same time, such methods perform poorly in the face of non-monotonicity. In this paper, we show - arguably, surprisingly - that invoking the…
Submodular maximization constitutes a prominent research topic in combinatorial optimization and theoretical computer science, with extensive applications across diverse domains. While substantial advancements have been achieved in…
Symmetric submodular maximization is an important class of combinatorial optimization problems, including MAX-CUT on graphs and hyper-graphs. The state-of-the-art algorithm for the problem over general constraints has an approximation ratio…
In this work, we study the problem of finding the maximum value of a non-negative submodular function subject to a limit on the number of items selected, a ubiquitous problem that appears in many applications, such as data summarization and…
We study submodular maximization problems with matroid constraints, in particular, problems where the objective can be expressed via compositions of analytic and multilinear functions. We show that for functions of this form, the so-called…
In this work, we study the classic submodular maximization problem under knapsack constraints and beyond. We first present an $(7/16-\varepsilon)$-approximate algorithm for single knapsack constraint, which requires…
We study parallel algorithms for the problem of maximizing a non-negative submodular function. Our main result is an algorithm that achieves a nearly-optimal $1/2 -\epsilon$ approximation using $O(\log(1/\epsilon) / \epsilon)$ parallel…
In this paper, we develop fast algorithms for two stochastic submodular maximization problems. We start with the well-studied adaptive submodular maximization problem subject to a cardinality constraint. We develop the first linear-time…
Constrained submodular maximization problems encompass a wide variety of applications, including personalized recommendation, team formation, and revenue maximization via viral marketing. The massive instances occurring in modern day…
In this paper, we apply a Threshold-Decreasing Algorithm to maximize $k$-submodular functions under a matroid constraint, which reduces the query complexity of the algorithm compared to the greedy algorithm with little loss in approximation…
In this paper, we study the non-monotone adaptive submodular maximization problem subject to a cardinality constraint. We first revisit the adaptive random greedy algorithm proposed in \citep{gotovos2015non}, where they show that this…
We consider fast algorithms for monotone submodular maximization subject to a matroid constraint. We assume that the matroid is given as input in an explicit form, and the goal is to obtain the best possible running times for important…
For constrained, not necessarily monotone submodular maximization, all known approximation algorithms with ratio greater than $1/e$ require continuous ideas, such as queries to the multilinear extension of a submodular function and its…
In this work we present the first practical $\left(\frac{1}{e}-\epsilon\right)$-approximation algorithm to maximise a general non-negative submodular function subject to a matroid constraint. Our algorithm is based on combining the…
The standard greedy algorithm has been recently shown to enjoy approximation guarantees for constrained non-submodular nondecreasing set function maximization. While these recent results allow to better characterize the empirical success of…
We investigate the performance of a deterministic GREEDY algorithm for the problem of maximizing functions under a partition matroid constraint. We consider non-monotone submodular functions and monotone subadditive functions. Even though…
