2 Maximum Coverage 2.1 Problem Definition
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the previous lecture we covered polynomial time reductions and approximation algorithms for vertex cover and set cover problems. By reductions we showed that SAT, 3SAT, Independent Set, Vertex Cover, Integer Programming, and Clique problems are NP-Hard. In this lecture we will continue to cover approximation algorithms for maximum coverage and metric TSP problems. We will also cover Strong NP-hardness, PTAS/FPTAS topics; and Knapsack and Bin Packing problems.

2 Knapsack Problem (continued) 2.1 Algorithm Recap Definition: We define states (sub-problems) as the following: the maximum value for a knapsack with capacity j and we are given the first i items. Then, we have ∀i, j, the corresponding state, a[i, j] is max(a[i−1, j−wi] + vi, a[i−1, j]), where the first option is the value if item i is in the knapsack and the second option is the value if item...
متن کاملExact maximum coverage probabilities of confidence intervals with increasing bounds for Poisson distribution mean
A Poisson distribution is well used as a standard model for analyzing count data. So the Poisson distribution parameter estimation is widely applied in practice. Providing accurate confidence intervals for the discrete distribution parameters is very difficult. So far, many asymptotic confidence intervals for the mean of Poisson distribution is provided. It is known that the coverag...

متن کاملPartial Subliner Time Approximation and Inapproximation for Maximum Coverage
We develop a randomized approximation algorithm for the classical maximum coverage problem, which given a list of sets A1, A2, · · · , An and integer parameter k, select k sets Ai 1 , Ai 2 , · · · , Ai k for maximum union Ai 1 ∪ Ai 2 ∪ · · · ∪ Ai k. In our algorithm, each input set Ai is a black box that can provide its size |Ai|, generate a random element of Ai, and answer the membership query...
متن کاملMaximum Coverage Problem with Group Budget Constraints and Applications
We study a variant of the maximum coverage problem which we label the maximum coverage problem with group budget constraints (MCG). We are given a collection of sets S = {S1, S2, . . . , Sm} where each set Si is a subset of a given ground set X. In the maximum coverage problem the goal is to pick k sets from S to maximize the cardinality of their union. In the MCG problem S is partitioned into ...
