Anticipated climate and land-cover changes reveal refuge areas for Borneo's orang-utans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Habitat loss and climate change pose a double jeopardy for many threatened taxa, making the identification of optimal habitat for the future a conservation priority.

Weighted geometric set multi-cover via quasi-uniform sampling

open access: yesJournal of Computational Geometry, 2016
We give a randomized polynomial time algorithm with approximation ratio $O(\log \phi(n))$ for weighted set multi-cover instances with a shallow cell complexity of at most $f(z,k) =z\phi(z) k^{O(1)}$.

Edge Dominating Sets and Vertex Covers

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2013
Bipartite graphs with equal edge domination number and maximum matching cardinality are characterized. These two parameters are used to develop bounds on the vertex cover and total vertex cover numbers of graphs and a resulting chain of vertex covering ...

REDUNET: reducing test suites by integrating set cover and network-based optimization

open access: yesApplied Network Science, 2020
The availability of effective test suites is critical for the development and maintenance of reliable software systems. To increase test effectiveness, software developers tend to employ larger and larger test suites.

Land Take and Landslide Hazard: Spatial Assessment and Policy Implications from a Study Concerning Sardinia

open access: yesLand, 2023
Land take and soil sealing imply land cover transitions that may possibly result in decreased capacity to resist landslides; hence, this study focuses on the relations between land-taking processes and landslide hazard by addressing the following ...

Incremental Updating Algorithm for Approximation Sets on Semi-Monolayer Cover Rough Sets [PDF]

open access: yesJisuanji gongcheng, 2022
A one-to-one mapping relationship exists between the semi-monolayer cover rough sets and the set-valued information system.When an object set in a set-valued information system is dynamically added or removed, the information unit that corresponds to the

Approximation hardness of dominating set problems in bounded degree graphs

open access: yes, 2008
We study approximation hardness of the Minimum Dominating Set problem and its variants in undirected and directed graphs. Using a similar result obtained by Trevisan for Minimum Set Cover we prove the first explicit approximation lower bounds for various

Frugality Ratios and Improved Truthful Mechanisms for Vertex Cover [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In set-system auctions, there are several overlapping teams of agents, and a task that can be completed by any of these teams. The auctioneer's goal is to hire a team and pay as little as possible.

Set Covering with Our Eyes Closed [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Computing, 2008
Given a universe U of n elements and a weighted collection l of m subsets of U, the universal set cover problem is to a-priori map each element u epsi U to a set S(u) epsi l containing u, so that X sube U is covered by S(X)=UuepsiXS(u). The aim is finding a mapping such that the cost of S(X) is as close as possible to the optimal set-cover cost for X. (
