This, through by evaluating the associated generating functions to obtain the correct branching probabilities. \u0000But these samplers require generating functions, in particular in the neighborhood of their sunglarity, which is a complex problem; they also require picking an appropriate tuning value to best control the size of generated objects. Although Pivoteau~etal have brought a sweeping question to the first question, with the introduction of their Newton oracle, questions remain. \u0000By adapting the rejection method, a classical tool from the random, we show how to obtain a variant of the Boltzmann sampler framework, which is tolerant of approximation, even large ones. Our goal for this is twofold: this allows for exact sampling with approximate values; but this also allows much more flexibility in tuning samplers. For the class of simple trees, we will try to show how this could be used to more easily calibrate samplers.","PeriodicalId":340112,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Analytic Algorithmics and Combinatorics","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127934450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Constraint Programming, the propagation mechanism is one of the key tools for solving hard combinatorial problems. It is based on specific algorithms: propagators, that are called a large number of times during the resolution process. But in practice, these algorithms may often do nothing: their output is equal to their input. It is thus highly desirable to be able to recognize such situations, so as to avoid useless calls. We propose to quantify this phenomenon in the particular case of the AllDifferent constraint (bound consistency propagator). Our first contribution is the definition of a probabilistic model for the constraint and the variables it is working on. This model then allows us to compute the probability that a call to the propagation algorithm for AllDifferent does modify its input. We give an asymptotic approximation of this probability, depending on some macroscopic quantities related to the variables and the domains, that can be computed in constant time. This reveals two very different behaviors depending of the sharpness of the constraint. First experiments show that the approximation allows us to improve constraint propagation behaviour.","PeriodicalId":340112,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Analytic Algorithmics and Combinatorics","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122748157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our approach is based on some variant of the Delta Method of Moments. We formulate a general result for an arbitrary distribution and next we show its specific extension to random variables which are sums of identically distributed independent random variables. Our method simpli files previous proofs of results of several authors and can be automated to a large extent. We apply our method to the binomial, negative binomial, Poisson and hypergeometric distribution.

The classic minimum dominating set problem is a special case with k = 1. We show that the approach of having at least k dominating nodes in the neighborhood of every node is not optimal. For each α > 1 it can give solutions k/α times larger than a minimum k-dominating set. We also study lower bounds on possible approximation ratios. We show that it is NP-hard to approximate the minimum k-dominating set problem with a factor better than (0.2267/k) ln(n/k). Furthermore, a result for special finite sums allows us to use a greedy approach for k-domination with an approximation ratio of ln(Δ + k) + 1 < ln(Δ) + 1.7, with Δ being the maximum node-degree. We also achieve an approximation ratio of ln(n)+1.7 for h-step k-domination, where nodes do not need to be direct neighbors of dominating nodes, but can be h steps away.","PeriodicalId":340112,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Analytic Algorithmics and Combinatorics","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116193510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bounds for projective inequivalence are difficult to obtain and are known for only a few special classes of matroids. In this paper we define two matrices A and A' to be geometric equivalent if, in addition to row operations and column scaling, column permutations are also allowed. We show that the number of geometric inequivalent representations is at most the number of projective inequivalent representions and we give a polynomial time algorithm for determining if two projective inequivalent representations are geometrically equivalent. Thus, from a computational perspective there is no additional cost to altering the definition of equivalence in this manner. The benefit is that it could lead to a new set of theorems for inequivalence with better bounds.","PeriodicalId":340112,"journal":{"name":"Workshop on Analytic Algorithmics and Combinatorics","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128890498","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
