Practical Discrete Unit Disk Cover Using an Exact Line-Separable Algorithm
Given m unit disks and n points in the plane, the discrete unit disk cover problem is to select a minimum subset of the disks to cover the points. This problem is NP-hard [11] and ...

Approximating the minimum directed tree cover
Given a directed graph G with non negative cost on the arcs, a directed tree cover of G is a directed tree such that either head or tail (or both of them) of every arc in G is touc...

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...

Evolutionary Algorithms for Vertex Cover
This paper reports work investigating various evolutionary approaches to vertex cover (VC), a well-known NP-Hard optimization problem. Central to each of the algorithms is a novel ...

On the connection between the phase transition of the covering test and the learning success rate in ILP
It is well-known that heuristic search in ILP is prone to plateau phenomena. An explanation can be given after the work of Giordana and Saitta: the ILP covering test is NP-complete...
