Exceeding Expectations and Clustering Uncertain Data
Summary: True approximation algorithms for k‑center clustering on probabilistic/uncertain data that preserve the number of centers, closing gaps in prior work. Introduce an "exceeding expectations" objective (contribution above expectation) and general optimization techniques under uncertainty. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
