Using Generalization Error Bounds to Train the Set Covering Machine
In this paper we eliminate the need for parameter estimation associated with the set covering machine (SCM) by directly minimizing generalization error bounds. Firstly, we consider...

Covering minimum spanning trees of random subgraphs
We consider the problem of finding a sparse set of edges containing the minimum spanning tree (MST) of a random subgraph of G with high probability. The two random models that we ...

Asymmetric Binary Covering Codes
An asymmetric binary covering code of length n and radius R is a subset C of the n-cube Qn such that every vector x Qn can be obtained from some vector c C by changing at most R...

Multi-guard covers for polygonal regions
We study the problem of finding optimal covers of polygonal regions using multiple mobile guards. By our definition, a point is covered if, at some time, it lies within the convex...

Understanding the Pheromone System Within Ant Colony Optimization
Abstract. Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a collection of metaheuristics inspired by foraging in ant colonies, whose aim is to solve combinatorial optimization problems. We identi...
