A Comparison Between ACO Algorithms for the Set Covering Problem
Abstract. In this paper we present a study of several Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithms for the Set Covering Problem. In our computational study we emphasize the influence ...

Approximate fixed-rank closures of covering problems
Consider a 0/1 integer program min{cT x : Ax b, x {0, 1}n } where A is nonnegative. We show that if the number of minimal covers of Ax b is polynomially bounded, then there is ...
