A new sequential covering strategy for inducing classification rules with ant colony algorithms [PDF]
Ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithms have been successfully applied to discover a list of classification rules. In general, these algorithms follow a sequential covering strategy, where a single rule is discovered at each iteration of the algorithm ...

One defines a subset \(\Lambda\subseteq\mathbb{R}\) to be uniformly discrete (u.d.) if there is an \(\varepsilon>0\) such that each pair in \(\Lambda\) is at least \(\varepsilon\) apart. For such \(\Lambda\) there is a natural density concept (lower uniform) \(d(\Lambda)\leq 1/\varepsilon\).

Two Neighbourhood-based Approaches for the Set Covering Problem
The Set Covering Problem is a well-known NP-complete problem which we address in this work. Due to its combinatorial nature heuristic methods, namely neighbourhood-based meta-heuristics, were used.

Optimizing Ambulance Allocation in Dynamic Urban Environments: A Historic Data-Driven Approach
In this study, we present a methodology to solve the multi-period ambulance relocation problem based on historical data. We present a methodology to convert historical data in latitude–longitude coordinates into cell-based network data.

Unsplittable coverings in the plane [PDF]
A system of sets forms an {\em $m$-fold covering} of a set $X$ if every point of $X$ belongs to at least $m$ of its members. A $1$-fold covering is called a {\em covering}.

On Covering of Cylindrical and Conical Surfaces with Equal Balls
The article concerns the problem of covering the lateral surface of a right circular cylinder or a cone with equal balls. The surface is required to belong to their union, and the balls’ radius is minimal. The centers of the balls must lie on the covered

Approximate Clustering via Metric Partitioning [PDF]
In this paper we consider two metric covering/clustering problems - \textit{Minimum Cost Covering Problem} (MCC) and $k$-clustering. In the MCC problem, we are given two point sets $X$ (clients) and $Y$ (servers), and a metric on $X \cup Y$.

ON RECTANGULAR COVERING PROBLEMS [PDF]
Many applications like image processing, data compression or pattern recognition require a covering of a set of n points most often located in the (discrete) plane by rectangles due to specific cost constraints. In this paper we provide exact dynamic programming algorithms for covering point sets by regular rectangles, that have to obey certain ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Adolescent siblings of children with cancer are at elevated risk for psychosocial problems. Unfortunately, various barriers such as limited family time and resources, conflicting schedules, and psychosocial staffing constraints at cancer centers hinder sibling access to support.
