Heuristics for the multi-vehicle covering tour problem
The multi-vehicle covering tour problem is de"ned on a graph G"(<6=, E), where = is a set of vertices that must collectively be covered by up to m vehicles. The probl...

Negative thinking by incremental problem solving: application to unate covering
We introduce a new technique to solve exactly a discrete optimization problem, based on the paradigm of “negative” thinking. The motivation is that when searching the space of...

An Indirect Genetic Algorithm for Set Covering Problems
This paper presents a new type of genetic algorithm for the set covering problem. It differs from previous evolutionary approaches first because it is an indirect algorithm, i.e. ...

Enumerative Algorithms for the Shortest and Closest Lattice Vector Problems in Any Norm via M-Ellipsoid Coverings
We give an algorithm for solving the exact Shortest Vector Problem in n-dimensional lattices, in any norm, in deterministic 2O(n) time (and space), given poly(n)-sized advice that...

The Maximum Common Subgraph Problem: Faster Solutions via Vertex Cover
In the maximum common subgraph (MCS) problem, we are given a pair of graphs and asked to find the largest induced subgraph common to them both. With its plethora of applications,...
