A Refined Analysis for Matroid Secretary with Submodular Objectives

We study the matroid secretary problem with a nonnegative monotone submodular objective. Elements arrive in uniformly random order, and every acceptance decision is immediate and irrevocable. We give an $8.699$-competitive algorithm for arbitrary matroids. The algorithm first rejects a randomly sized initial segment of...

Multilevel Dynamic Thinning for Matroid Secretary

In the matroid secretary problem, weighted elements arrive in random order, and an online algorithm must irrevocably accept elements forming a high-weight independent set. Dynamic Thinning is a recent, conceptually simple $3.1462$-competitive algorithm for the matroid secretary problem that maintains a random reference...
