优先算法的建议复杂性

Advice Complexity of Priority Algorithms

Allan Borodin, Joan Boyar, Kim S. Larsen, Denis Pankratov

摘要:

类贪婪算法的优先级模型是由Borodin、Nielsen和Rackoff在2002年提出的。我们通过允许优先级算法访问建议来增强此模型,即,由全能的预言师预先计算的辅助信息在没有建议的情况下获得优先级模型的下限可能具有挑战性,并且可能涉及复杂的对手论点。由于具有建议的优先级模型甚至更强大,因此获得下限带来了额外的困难。我们避开这些困难,通过开发一个一般框架的减少,使下界证明相对简单和常规。我们首先介绍配对匹配问题,我们能够证明强下界的优先级模型的建议。我们开发了一个模板,用于构建从配对匹配到优先级模型中的其他问题的减少,并提供建议-这部分在技术上具有挑战性,因为减少需要为配对匹配定义一个有效的优先级函数,同时尊重其他问题的优先级函数。最后,我们应用该模板来获得一些标准离散优化问题的下界。

英文摘要:

The priority model of "greedy-like" algorithms was introduced by Borodin, Nielsen, and Rackoff in 2002. We augment this model by allowing priority algorithms to have access to advice, i.e., side information precomputed by an all-powerful oracle. Obtaining lower bounds in the priority model without advice can be challenging and may involve intricate adversary arguments. Since the priority model with advice is even more powerful, obtaining lower bounds presents additional difficulties. We sidestep these difficulties by developing a general framework of reductions which makes lower bound proofs relatively straightforward and routine. We start by introducing the Pair Matching problem, for which we are able to prove strong lower bounds in the priority model with advice. We develop a template for constructing a reduction from Pair Matching to other problems in the priority model with advice -- this part is technically challenging since the reduction needs to define a valid priority function for Pair Matching while respecting the priority function for the other problem. Finally, we apply the template to obtain lower bounds for a number of standard discrete optimization problems.
