A Threshold of ln n for Approximating Set Cover
Given a collection Ᏺ of subsets of S ϭ {1, . . . , n}, set cover is the problem of selecting as few as possible subsets from Ᏺ such that their union covers S, and max k-cover ...

Learning with the Set Covering Machine
We generalize the classical algorithms of Valiant and Haussler for learning conjunctions and disjunctions of Boolean attributes to the problem of learning these functions over arb...
