Abstract
We study the deletion robust version of submodular maximization under matroid constraints. The goal is to extract a small-size summary of the data set that contains a high-value independent set even after an adversary deletes some elements. We present constant-factor approximation algorithms, whose space complexity depends on the rank $k$ of the matroid, the number $d$ of deleted elements, and the input precision $\varepsilon$. In the centralized setting we present a $(4.494+O(\varepsilon))$-approximation algorithm with summary size $O( \frac{k+d}{\varepsilon^2}\log \frac{k}{\varepsilon})$ that improves to a $(3.582+O(\varepsilon))$-approximation with $O(k + \frac{d}{\varepsilon^2}\log \frac{k}{\varepsilon})$ summary size when the objective is monotone. In the streaming setting we provide a $(9.294 + O(\varepsilon))$-approximation algorithm with summary size and memory $O(k + \frac{d}{\varepsilon^2}\log \frac{k}{\varepsilon})$; the approximation factor is then improved to $(5.582+O(\varepsilon))$ in the monotone case.
