Smoothed Performance Guarantees for Local Search
We study popular local search and greedy algorithms for standard machine scheduling problems. The performance guarantee of these algorithms is well understood, but the worst-case lower bounds seem somewhat contrived and it is questionable whether they arise in practical applications. To find out how robust these bounds are, we study the algorithms in the framework of smoothed analysis, in which...
متن کاملPerformance Guarantees of Local Search for Multiprocessor Scheduling
Increasing interest has recently been shown in analyzing the worst-case behavior of local search algorithms. In particular, the quality of local optima and the time needed to find the local optima by the simplest form of local search has been studied. This paper deals with worst-case performance of local search algorithms for makespan minimization on parallel machines. We analyze the quality of...
متن کاملSmoothed Analysis of Local Search Algorithms
Smoothed analysis is a method for analyzing the performance of algorithms for which classical worst-case analysis fails to explain the performance observed in practice. Smoothed analysis has been applied to explain the performance of a variety of algorithms in the last years. One particular class of algorithms where smoothed analysis has been used successfully are local search algorithms. We gi...
متن کاملGapped Local Similarity Search with Provable Guarantees
We present a program qhash, based on q-gram filtration and high-dimensional search, to find gapped local similarities between two sequences. Our approach differs from past q-gram-based approaches in two main aspects. Our filtration step uses algorithms for a sparse all-pairs problem, while past studies use suffix-tree-like structures and counters. Our program works in sequence-sequence mode, wh...
متن کاملA novel local search method for microaggregation
In this paper, we propose an effective microaggregation algorithm to produce a more useful protected data for publishing. Microaggregation is mapped to a clustering problem with known minimum and maximum group size constraints. In this scheme, the goal is to cluster n records into groups of at least k and at most 2k_1 records, such that the sum of the within-group squ...
