We consider the following natural problem that generalizes min-sum-radii clustering: Given is $k\in\mathbb{N}$ as well as some metric space $(V,d)$ where $V=F\cup C$ for facilities $F$ and clients $C$. The goal is to find a clustering given…

In optimization or machine learning problems we are given a set of items, usually points in some metric space, and the goal is to minimize or maximize an objective function over some space of candidate solutions. For example, in clustering…

In Online Sum-Radii Clustering, n demand points arrive online and must be irrevocably assigned to a cluster upon arrival. The cost of each cluster is the sum of a fixed opening cost and its radius, and the objective is to minimize the total…
