The p-Neighbor k-Center Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
The k center problem with triangle inequality is that of placing k center nodes in a weighted undirected graph in which the edge weights obey the triangle inequality so that the maximum distance of any node to its nearest center is minimized In this paper we consider a generalization of this problem where given a number p we wish to place k centers so as to minimize the maximum distance of any non center node to its p closest center We derive a best possible approximation algorithm for this problem

Non-zero probability of nearest neighbor searching
Nearest Neighbor (NN) searching is a challenging problem in data management and has been widely studied in data mining, pattern recognition and computational geometry. The goal of NN searching is efficiently reporting the nearest data to a given object as a query. In most of the studies both the data and query are assumed to be precise, however, due to the real applications of NN searching, suc...
متن کاملChromatic nearest neighbor searching: A query sensitive approach
The nearest neighbor problem is that of preprocessing a set P of n data points in Rd so that, given any query point q, the closest point in P to q can be determined efficiently. In the chromatic nearest neighbor problem, each point of P is assigned a color, and the problem is to determine the color of the nearest point to the query point. More generally, given k ≥ 1, the problem is to determine...
متن کاملAsymmetry in k-Center Variants
This paper explores three concepts: the k-center problem, some of its variants, and asymmetry. The k-center problem is a fundamental clustering problem, similar to the k-median problem. Variants of k-center may more accurately model real-life problems than the original formulation. Asymmetry is a significant impediment to approximation in many graph problems, such as k-center, facility location...

A successful software should be finalized with determined and predetermined cost and time. Software is a production which its approximate cost is expert workforce and professionals. The most important and approximate software cost estimation (SCE) is related to the trained workforce. Creative nature of software projects and its abstract nature make extremely cost and time of projects difficult ...
متن کاملSolving the k-center Problem Efficiently with a Dominating Set Algorithm
We present a polynomial time heuristic algorithm for the minimum dominating set problem. The algorithm can readily be used for solving the minimum α-all-neighbor dominating set problem and the minimum set cover problem. We apply the algorithm in heuristic solving the minimum k-center problem in polynomial time. Using a standard set of 40 test problems we experimentally show that our k-center al...
