A Primal-Dual Approximation Algorithm for Partial Vertex Cover: Making Educated Guesses
We study the partial vertex cover problem. Given a graph G = (V, E), a weight function w : V → R+ , and an integer s, our goal is to cover all but s edges, by picking a set of v...

Cycle Cover with Short Cycles
Cycle covering is a well-studied problem in computer science. In this paper, we develop approximation algorithms for variants of cycle covering problems which bound the size and/o...

A Stochastic Local Search Approach to Vertex Cover
We introduce a novel stochastic local search algorithm for the vertex cover problem. Compared to current exhaustive search techniques, our algorithm achieves excellent performance ...

Geometric Set Cover and Hitting Sets for Polytopes in $R^3$
Suppose we are given a finite set of points P in R3 and a collection of polytopes T that are all translates of the same polytope T. We consider two problems in this paper. The firs...

On Column-Restricted and Priority Covering Integer Programs
In a column-restricted covering integer program (CCIP), all the non-zero entries of any column of the constraint matrix are equal. Such programs capture capacitated versions of cov...
