Set Covering with our Eyes Closed
Given a universe U of n elements and a weighted collection S of m subsets of U, the universal set cover problem is to a-priori map each element u ∈ U to a set S(u) ∈ S contain...

Inapproximability of Vertex Cover and Independent Set in Bounded Degree Graphs
We study the inapproximability of Vertex Cover and Independent Set on degree d graphs. We prove that: • Vertex Cover is Unique Games-hard to approximate to within a factor 2−(...

Local PTAS for Independent Set and Vertex Cover in Location Aware Unit Disk Graphs
We present the first local approximation schemes for maximum independent set and minimum vertex cover in unit disk graphs. In the graph model we assume that each node knows its geo...

Strategyproof cost-sharing mechanisms for set cover and facility location games
Strategyproof cost-sharing mechanisms, lying in the core, that recover 1/a fraction of the cost, are presented for the set cover and facility location games: a=O(log n) for the fo...

Sequential covering rule induction algorithm for variable consistency rough set approaches
We present a general rule induction algorithm based on sequential covering, suitable for variable consistency rough set approaches. This algorithm, called VC-DomLEM, can be used f...
