Approximate String Matching in DNA Sequences
Approximate string matching on large DNA sequences data is very important in bioinformatics. Some studies have shown that suffix tree is an efficient data structure for approxim...

On the Complexity of Approximating TSP with Neighborhoods and Related Problems
We prove that various geometric covering problems, related to the Travelling Salesman Problem cannot be efficiently approximated to within any constant factor unless P = NP. This ...

Quadtree, ray shooting and approximate minimum weight Steiner triangulation
We present a quadtree-based decomposition of the interior of a polygon with holes. The complete decomposition yields a constant factor approximation of the minimum weight Steiner ...
