Subset Selection via Spectral Objectives
… a variety of areas, including machine learning, network design, and fair allocation of goods. We use a geometric model for this problem where the items (or their qualities) are represented by d-dimensional vectors. That is, given a large set E, where each element is represented by a real vector, …
