PTAS for geometric hitting set problems via local search
We consider the problem of computing minimum geometric hitting sets in which, given a set of geometric objects and a set of points, the goal is to compute the smallest subset of p...

Articulating user preferences in many-objective problems by sampling the weighted hypervolume
The hypervolume indicator has become popular in recent years both for performance assessment and to guide the search of evolutionary multiobjective optimizers. Two critical resear...

Faster Algorithms for All-pairs Approximate Shortest Paths in Undirected Graphs
Let G = (V, E) be a weighted undirected graph having non-negative edge weights. An estimate ˆδ(u, v) of the actual distance δ(u, v) between u, v ∈ V is said to be of stretch t...
