Sampling without replacement is a natural online rounding strategy for converting fractional bipartite matching into an integral one. In Online Bipartite Matching, we can use the Balance algorithm to fractionally match each online vertex,…
We study the online load balancing problem on unrelated machines, with the objective of minimizing the square of the $\ell_2$ norm of the loads on the machines. The greedy algorithm of Awerbuch et al. (STOC'95) is optimal for deterministic…
We study the classic online bipartite matching problem with a twist: offline vertices, called resources, are $\textit{reusable}$. In particular, when a resource is matched to an online vertex it is unavailable for a deterministic time…
We introduce a new rounding technique designed for online optimization problems, which is related to contention resolution schemes, a technique initially introduced in the context of submodular function maximization. Our rounding technique,…
In the setting of online algorithms, the input is initially not present but rather arrive one-by-one over time and after each input, the algorithm has to make a decision. Depending on the formulation of the problem, the algorithm might be…
We study the edge-weighted online stochastic matching problem. Since Feldman, Mehta, Mirrokni, and Muthukrishnan proposed the $(1-\frac1e)$-competitive Suggested Matching algorithm, there has been no improvement for the general…
We study the problem of online unweighted bipartite matching with $n$ offline vertices and $n$ online vertices where one wishes to be competitive against the optimal offline algorithm. While the classic RANKING algorithm of Karp et al.…
We establish an optimal upper bound (negative result) of $\sim 0.526$ on the competitive ratio of the fractional version of online bipartite matching with two-sided vertex arrivals, matching the lower bound (positive result) achieved by…
We consider the online stochastic matching problem proposed by Feldman et al. [FMMM09] as a model of display ad allocation. We are given a bipartite graph; one side of the graph corresponds to a fixed set of bins and the other side…
Online bipartite matching with one-sided arrival and its variants have been extensively studied since the seminal work of Karp, Vazirani, and Vazirani (STOC 1990). Motivated by real-life applications with dynamic market structures, e.g.…
In the online bipartite matching with reassignments problem, an algorithm is initially given only one side of the vertex set of a bipartite graph; the vertices on the other side are revealed to the algorithm one by one, along with its…
In bipartite matching problems, vertices on one side of a bipartite graph are paired with those on the other. In its online variant, one side of the graph is available offline, while the vertices on the other side arrive online. When a…
Online bipartite matching has been extensively studied. In the unweighted setting, Karp et al. gave an optimal $(1 - 1/e)$-competitive randomized algorithm. In the weighted setting, optimal algorithms have been achieved only under…
We study stationary online bipartite matching, where both types of nodes--offline and online--arrive according to Poisson processes. Offline nodes wait to be matched for some random time, determined by an exponential distribution, while…
Online bipartite matching is a fundamental problem in online optimization, extensively studied both in its integral and fractional forms due to its theoretical significance and practical applications, such as online advertising and resource…
Online bipartite matching is a classical problem in online algorithms and we know that both the deterministic fractional and randomized integral online matchings achieve the same competitive ratio of $1-\frac{1}{e}$. In this work, we study…
An Orthogonal Least Squares (OLS) based feature selection method is proposed for both binomial and multinomial classification. The novel Squared Orthogonal Correlation Coefficient (SOCC) is defined based on Error Reduction Ratio (ERR) in…
While online bipartite matching has gained significant attention in recent years, existing analyses in stochastic settings fail to capture the performance of algorithms on heterogeneous graphs, such as those incorporating inter-group…
The $b$-matching problem is an allocation problem where the vertices on the left-hand side of a bipartite graph, referred to as servers, may be matched multiple times. In the setting with stochastic rewards, an assignment between an…
Online contention resolution schemes (OCRSs) are effective rounding techniques for online stochastic combinatorial optimization problems. These schemes randomly and sequentially round a fractional solution to a relaxed problem that can be…
