In thispaper we give a 3-approximationalgorithmfor the problem ojJnding a minimum tree spanning any k-vertices in a graph. Our algorithm extends to a 3-approximationalgorithmfor t...
We consider the problem of finding a minimum diameter spanning tree with maximum node degree B in a complete undirected edge-weighted graph. We provide an O( p logB n)-approximatio...
We present an algorithm for approximating a given open polygonal curve with a minimum number of circular arcs. In computer-aided manufacturing environments, the paths of cutting t...
We show how to nd a minimum weight loop cutset in a Bayesian network with high probability. Finding such a loop cutset is the rst step in the method of conditioning for inference....
For a given graph with weighted vertices, the goal of the minimum-weight dominating set problem is to compute a vertex subset of smallest weight such that each vertex of the graph...
