Submodular Maximization

Monotone submodular maximization with a knapsack constraint is NP-hard. Various approximation algorithms have been devised to address this optimization problem. In this paper, we revisit the widely known modified greedy algorithm. First, we show that this algorithm can achieve an approximation factor of 0.405, which significantly improves the known factors of 0.357 given by Wolsey and (1-1/e)/2\approx 0.316 given by Khuller et al. More importantly, our analysis closes a gap in Khuller et al.'s proof for the extensively mentioned approximation factor of (1-1/\sqrte )\approx 0.393 in the literature to clarify a long-standing misconception on this issue. Second, we enhance the modified greedy algorithm to derive a data-dependent upper bound on the optimum. We empirically demonstrate the tightness of our upper bound with a real-world application. The bound enables us to obtain a data-dependent ratio typically much higher than 0.405 between the solution value of the modified greedy algorithm and the optimum. It can also be used to significantly improve the efficiency of algorithms such as branch and bound.

Submodular Maximization

We consider the problem of maximizing monotone submodular function over the bounded integer lattice with a cardinality constraint. Function [Formula: see text] is submodular over integer lattice if [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], where ∨ and ∧ represent elementwise maximum and minimum, respectively. Let [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text], we study the problem of maximizing submodular function [Formula: see text] with constraints [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. A random greedy [Formula: see text]-approximation algorithm and a deterministic [Formula: see text]-approximation algorithm are proposed in this paper. Both algorithms work in value oracle model. In the random greedy algorithm, we assume the monotone submodular function satisfies diminishing return property, which is not an equivalent definition of submodularity on integer lattice. Additionally, our random greedy algorithm makes [Formula: see text] value oracle queries and deterministic algorithm makes [Formula: see text] value oracle queries.
