| | Lately I have been making use of a continuous relaxation of discrete random variables proposed in two recent papers: The Concrete Distribution: A Continuous Relaxation of Discrete Random Variables and Categorical Reparameterization with Gumbel-Softmax. I decided to write a blog post with some motivation of the method, as well as providing some minor clarification on...

| 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...
