In the design of greedy algorithms for the maximum cardinality matching problem the utilization of degree information when selecting the next edge is a well established and successful approach. We define the class of "degree sensitive"…

We investigate the complexity of sorting in the model of sequential quantum circuits. While it is known that in general a quantum algorithm based on comparisons alone cannot outperform classical sorting algorithms by more than a constant…

We explore the fundamental problem of sorting through the lens of learning-augmented algorithms, where algorithms can leverage possibly erroneous predictions to improve their efficiency. We consider two different settings: In the first…

We examine sorting algorithms for $n$ elements whose basic operation is comparing $t$ elements simultaneously (a $t$-comparator). We focus on algorithms that use only a single round or two rounds -- comparisons performed in the second round…

Sequence models are a critical component of modern NLP systems, but their predictions are difficult to explain. We consider model explanations though rationales, subsets of context that can explain individual model predictions. We find…

In graph theory, the longest path problem is the problem of finding a simple path of maximum length in a given graph. For some small classes of graphs, the problem can be solved in polynomial time [2, 4], but it remains NP-hard on general…

The Coin Change problem, also known as the Change-Making problem, is a well-studied combinatorial optimization problem, which involves minimizing the number of coins needed to make a specific change amount using a given set of coin…

In dictionary selection, several atoms are selected from finite candidates that successfully approximate given data points in the sparse representation. We propose a novel efficient greedy algorithm for dictionary selection. Not only does…

Consider two ordered positive real number arrays of equal size. The problem is to find such set of indices of given size that the ratio of the sums of the array elements with those indices is minimized. In this work, in order to mitigate…

In [25], T. Oikhberg introduced and studied variants of the greedy and weak greedy algorithms for sequences with gaps, with a focus on the $\mathbf n$-$t$-quasi-greedy property that is based on them. Building upon this foundation, our…

The Greedy algorithm is the simplest heuristic in sequential decision problem that carelessly takes the locally optimal choice at each round, disregarding any advantages of exploring and/or information gathering. Theoretically, it is known…

Kernel-based schemes are state-of-the-art techniques for learning by data. In this work we extend some ideas about kernel-based greedy algorithms to exponential-polynomial splines, whose main drawback consists in possible overfitting and…

Vizing's theorem states that any graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ can be properly edge colored with at most $\Delta+1$ colors. In the online setting, it has been a matter of interest to find an algorithm that can properly edge color any…

We have recently introduced a multistep extension of the greedy algorithm for modularity optimization. The extension is based on the idea that merging l pairs of communities (l>1) at each iteration prevents premature condensation into few…

We introduce the stack-sorting map $\text{SC}_\sigma$ that sorts, in a right-greedy manner, an input permutation through a stack that avoids some vincular pattern $\sigma$. The stack-sorting maps of Cerbai et al. in which the stack avoids a…

The greedy strategy is an approximation algorithm to solve optimization problems arising in decision making with multiple actions. How good is the greedy strategy compared to the optimal solution? In this survey, we mainly consider two…

Finding a maximum-weight matching is a classical and well-studied problem in computer science, solvable in cubic time in general graphs. We consider the specialization called assignment problem where the input is a bipartite graph, and…

The use of complex networks as a modern approach to understanding the world and its dynamics is well-established in literature. The adjacency matrix, which provides a one-to-one representation of a complex network, can also yield several…

We engineer algorithms for sorting huge data sets on massively parallel machines. The algorithms are based on the multiway merging paradigm. We first outline an algorithm whose I/O requirement is close to a lower bound. Thus, in contrast to…

The bottom-left algorithm is a simple heuristic for the Strip Packing Problem. It places the rectangles in the given order at the lowest free position in the strip, using the left most position in case of ties. Despite its simplicity, the…
