The importance of being biased
The Minimum Vertex Cover problem is the problem of, given a graph, finding a smallest set of vertices that touches all edges. We show that it is NP-hard to approximate this proble...

Fractional Biclique Covers and Partitions of Graphs
A biclique is a complete bipartite subgraph of a graph. This paper investigates the fractional biclique cover number, bc(G), and the fractional biclique partition number, bp(G), o...

On Approximating Minimum Vertex Cover for Graphs with Perfect Matching
It has been a challenging open problem whether there is a polynomial time approximation algorithm for the Vertex Cover problem whose approximation ratio is bounded by a constant l...

The 2-center problem in three dimensions
Let P be a set of n points in R3 . The 2-center problem for P is to find two congruent balls of the minimum radius whose union covers P. We present two randomized algorithms for ...

Sequential covering rule induction algorithm for variable consistency rough set approaches
We present a general rule induction algorithm based on sequential covering, suitable for variable consistency rough set approaches. This algorithm, called VC-DomLEM, can be used f...
