On the Covering Steiner Problem
The Covering Steiner problem is a common generalization of the k-MST and Group Steiner problems. An instance of the Covering Steiner problem consists of an undirected graph with ed...

Bin Completion Algorithms for Multicontainer Packing, Knapsack, and Covering Problems
Many combinatorial optimization problems such as the bin packing and multiple knapsack problems involve assigning a set of discrete objects to multiple containers. These problems ...

A polynomial solution to the k-fixed-endpoint path cover problem on proper interval graphs
: We study a variant of the path cover problem, namely, the k-fixed-endpoint path cover problem, or kPC for short. Given a graph G and a subset T of k vertices of V (G), a k-fixe...

The minimum consistent subset cover problem and its applications in data mining
In this paper, we introduce and study the Minimum Consistent Subset Cover (MCSC) problem. Given a finite ground set X and a constraint t, find the minimum number of consistent sub...
