On the Impact of Local Taxes in a Set Cover Game
Given a collection C of weighted subsets of a ground set E, the set cover problem is to find a minimum weight subset of C which covers all elements of E. We study a strategic game ...

Margin-Sparsity Trade-Off for the Set Covering Machine
We propose a new learning algorithm for the set covering machine and a tight data-compression risk bound that the learner can use for choosing the appropriate tradeoff between the ...

The Set Covering Machine with Data-Dependent Half-Spaces
We examine the set covering machine when it uses data-dependent half-spaces for its set of features and bound its generalization error in terms of the number of training errors an...

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...

A Comparison Between ACO Algorithms for the Set Covering Problem
Abstract. In this paper we present a study of several Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithms for the Set Covering Problem. In our computational study we emphasize the influence ...
