How to solve the optimization problem $\max_{\mathbf{w}}\sum_i\text{sign}(\mathbf{w}^T \mathbf{x}_i)$?
I am looking for an algorithm to solve the following optimization problem
$$\max_{\mathbf{w}}\sum_i\text{sign}(\mathbf{w}^T \mathbf{x}_i)$$
where $\mathbf{w}$ and each $\mathbf{x}_i\in\mathbb{R}^d$.

How do you call a linear programming problem when the solution should be "constrained" to a norm?
(apologies for the n00b question)
Let's say we have a vector of length $n$, with to-be-determined values: $a_1, a_2, ...,a_n$.
And we have information that partial sums of these elements are equal to ...

Maximizing supermodular functions
I have a real supermodular objective function which I want to maximize with constraint. The constraint is on the size, like |A|=k .
I am wondering if anyone can give me more information about a ...
