Approximating the Crossing Number of Graphs Embeddable in Any Orientable Surface
The crossing number of a graph is the least number of pairwise edge crossings in a drawing of the graph in the plane. We provide an O(n log n) time constant factor approximation al...

Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Path and Directed Latency Problems
We study integrality gaps and approximability of two closely related problems on directed graphs. Given a set V of n nodes in an underlying asymmetric metric and two specified nod...

A Polynomial Time Approximation Scheme for the Square Packing Problem
Given a set Q of squares with positive pro ts, the square packing problem is to select and pack a subset of squares of maximum pro t into a rectangular bin R. We present a polynomi...

An Approach to Polygonal Approximation of Digital Curves Based on Discrete Particle Swarm Algorithm
: An approach to polygonal approximation of regular digital curves based on PSO algorithm is presented. In this paper, each particle corresponds to a candidate solution to the poly...
