72703925 | Their algorithm uses a continuous-greedy algorithm - an algorithm that extends a fractional bundle (a bundle that contains a fraction pj of each item j) in a greedy direction (similarly to gradient descent). Their algorithm needs to compute the value of fractional bundles, defined as the expected value of the bundle attained when each item j is selected independently with probability pj. In general, computing the value of a fractional bundle might require 2m calls to a value oracle; however, it can be computed approximately with high probability by random sampling. | 571 |
