| | | | | The algorithm for probabilistically embedding metric spaces into trees has numerous theoretical applications. It is a key tool in the design of many approximation algorithms and online algorithms. Today we will illustrate the usefulness of these trees in designing an algorithm for the online Steiner tree problem. 1. Online Steiner Tree Let $latex {G=(V,E)}&fg=000000$ be... | |

| | | | | When addressing the question of what it means for an algorithm to learn, one can imagine many different models, and there are quite a few. This invariably raises the question of which models are "the same" and which are "different," along with a precise description of how we're comparing models. We've seen one learning model so far, called Probably Approximately Correct (PAC), which espouses the following answer to the learning question: | |

| | | | | Hard to believe Sanjeev Arora and his coauthors consider it"a basic tool [that should be] taught to all algorithms students together with divide-and-conquer, dynamic programming, and random sampling."Christos Papadimitriou calls it"so hard to believe that it has been discovered five times and forgotten." It has formed the basis of algorithms inmachine learning, optimization, game theory, | |

| | | As an experiment, I have recently started using Vim as my primary text editor. While I have been an Emacs aficionado for a very, very long time - clocking in at almost 16 years - Vim is something that I have always been curious about, and tinkered with from time to time, while ending up... | ||
