Greedy Algorithms for Adaptive Approximation

Albert Cohen (2009)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We discuss the performances of greedy algorithms for two problems of numerical approximation. The first one is the best approximation of an arbitrary function by an N-terms linear combination of simple functions adaptively picked within a large dictionary. The second one is the approximation of an arbitrary function by a piecewise polynomial function on an optimally adapted triangulation of cardinality N. Performance is measured in terms of convergence rate with respect to the number...

Online LIB problems: Heuristics for Bin Covering and lower bounds for Bin Packing

Luke Finlay, Prabhu Manyem (2006)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

We consider the NP Hard problems of online Bin Covering and Packing while requiring that larger (or longer, in the one dimensional case) items be placed at the bottom of the bins, below smaller (or shorter) items — we call such a version, the version of problems. Bin sizes can be uniform or variable. We look at computational studies for both the Best Fit and Harmonic Fit algorithms for uniform sized bin covering. The Best Fit heuristic for this version of the problem is introduced...
