Fast distributed approximation algorithms for vertex cover and set cover in anonymous networks
We present a distributed algorithm that finds a maximal edge packing in O(∆ + log∗ W) synchronous communication rounds in a weighted graph, independent of the number of nodes...

Clustering with partial information
The Correlation Clustering problem, also known as the Cluster Editing problem, seeks to edit a given graph by adding and deleting edges to obtain a collection of disconnected cliq...

On the Positive-Negative Partial Set Cover problem
The Positive-Negative Partial Set Cover problem is introduced and its complexity, especially the hardness-of-approximation, is studied. The problem generalizes the Set Cover probl...

A Unified Approach to Approximating Partial Covering Problems
An instance of the generalized partial cover problem consists of a ground set U and a family of subsets S 2U . Each element e U is associated with a profit p(e), whereas each su...
