Generalization of land cover maps by mixed integer programming
We present a novel method for the automatic generalization of land cover maps. A land cover map is composed of areas that collectively form a tessellation of the plane and each ar...

On the connection between the phase transition of the covering test and the learning success rate in ILP
It is well-known that heuristic search in ILP is prone to plateau phenomena. An explanation can be given after the work of Giordana and Saitta: the ILP covering test is NP-complete...

Exact Cover with light
We suggest a new, unconventional, way for solving the YES/NO version of the Exact Cover problem by using the massive parallelism of light. The idea is to build a device which can ...
