A Pseudopolynomial Time O (log n )-Approximation Algorithm for Art Gallery Problems
In this paper, we give a O(log copt)-approximation algorithm for the point guard problem where copt is the optimal number of guards. Our algorithm runs in time polynomial in n, the...

New Approximation-Based Local Search Algorithms for the Probabilistic Traveling Salesman Problem
In this paper we present new local search algorithms for the Probabilistic Traveling Salesman Problem (PTSP) using sampling and ad-hoc approximation. These algorithms improve both...

An approximation algorithm for the least overlapping p-Frame problem with non-partial coverage for networked robotic cameras
Abstract— We report our algorithmic development of the pframe problem that addresses the need of coordinating a set of p networked robotic pan-tilt-zoom cameras for n, (n > p)...
