For the problem of maximizing an approximately submodular function (ASFM problem), a greedy algorithm quickly finds good feasible solutions for many instances while guaranteeing ($1-e^{-\gamma}$)-approximation ratio for a given submodular ratio $\gamma$.

Nemhauser and Wolsey developed an exact algorithm called the constraint generation algorithm that starts from a reduced BIP problem with a small subset of constraints taken from the constraints and repeats solving a reduced BIP problem while adding a new constraint at each iteration.
