We improve the running times of \(O(1)\)-approximation algorithms for the set cover problem in geometric settings, specifically, covering points by disks in the plane, or covering points by halfspaces ...

You can give input to the program via GUI and see the results. Input of program is a few number of sets which each set has a lot of points. The goal is to cover all points on the plane (Universe) by ...

We propose a set-cover based approximation algorithm for RFID coverage with the minimum number of readers. We extend this algorithm to consider the objective of reducing overlap and interference among ...

Computer engineering offers many examples of approximation algorithms for different optimization problems. For instance, the vertex cover problem requires finding the smallest set of vertices that ...

This package solves the set cover algorithm using the greedy approach. From Wikipedia about the Set Cover Algorithm: The set cover problem is a classical question in combinatorics, computer science, ...

Lectures. Week 1: Set Cover, Greedy Algorithms, Linear Programs. Lecture 1 (Aug 30, AG). Introduction + Set Cover. (handwritten notes) Ron Graham's 1972 paper on Parallel Machine Scheduling.; David ...

Graph cover problems form a critical area within discrete optimisation and theoretical computer science, addressing the challenge of selecting subsets of vertices (or edges) that satisfy ...
