We study a geometric hitting-set problem in which the input consists of a set $P$ of weighted points and a family $S=H\cup V$ of axis-parallel segments in the plane. The goal is to select a minimum-weight subset of $P$ that hits every…
Suppose we are given a finite set of points $P$ in $\R^3$ and a collection of polytopes $\mathcal{T}$ that are all translates of the same polytope $T$. We consider two problems in this paper. The first is the set cover problem where we want…
Geometric hitting set problems, in which we seek a smallest set of points that collectively hit a given set of ranges, are ubiquitous in computational geometry. Most often, the set is discrete and is given explicitly. We propose new…
A hitting set for a collection of sets is a set that has a non-empty intersection with each set in the collection; the hitting set problem is to find a hitting set of minimum cardinality. Motivated by instances of the hitting set problem…
Hitting Set is a classic problem in combinatorial optimization. Its input consists of a set system F over a finite universe U and an integer t; the question is whether there is a set of t elements that intersects every set in F. The Hitting…
Let $H$ be a fixed undirected graph on $k$ vertices. The $H$-hitting set problem asks for deleting a minimum number of vertices from a given graph $G$ in such a way that the resulting graph has no copies of $H$ as a subgraph. This problem…
The hitting set problem is a well-known NP-hard optimization problem in which, given a set of elements and a collection of subsets, the goal is to find the smallest selection of elements, such that each subset contains at least one element…
Given a set of points in the plane, the \textsc{General Position Subset Selection} problem is that of finding a maximum-size subset of points in general position, i.e., with no three points collinear. The problem is known to be ${\rm…
We study the minimum \emph{Monitoring Edge Geodetic Set} (\megset) problem introduced in [Foucaud et al., CALDAM'23]: given a graph $G$, we say that an edge is monitored by a pair $u,v$ of vertices if \emph{all} shortest paths between $u$…
The hitting set problem asks for a collection of sets over a universe $U$ to find a minimum subset of $U$ that intersects each of the given sets. It is NP-hard and equivalent to the problem set cover. We give a branch-and-bound algorithm to…
We consider the Sparse Hitting Set (Sparse-HS) problem, where we are given a set system $(V,\mathcal{F},\mathcal{B})$ with two families $\mathcal{F},\mathcal{B}$ of subsets of $V$. The task is to find a hitting set for $\mathcal{F}$ that…
We consider the parameterized complexity of the problem of tracking shortest s-t paths in graphs, motivated by applications in security and wireless networks. Given an undirected and unweighted graph with a source s and a destination t,…
Given a set $P$ of $n$ weighted points and a set $S$ of $m$ disks in the plane, the hitting set problem is to compute a subset $P'$ of points of $P$ such that each disk contains at least one point of $P'$ and the total weight of all points…
In this work, we propose a purely geometrical approach for the robust matching of line segments for challenging stereo streams with severe illumination changes or High Dynamic Range (HDR) environments. To that purpose, we exploit the…
Edge-Geodetic Sets play a crucial role in network monitoring and optimization, wherein the goal is to strategically place monitoring stations on vertices of a network, represented as a graph, to ensure complete coverage of edges and…
We study three classical graph problems - Hamiltonian path, minimum spanning tree, and minimum perfect matching on geometric graphs induced by bichromatic (red and blue) points. These problems have been widely studied for points in the…
The coverage problem in wireless sensor networks deals with the problem of covering a region or parts of it with sensors. In this paper, we address the problem of covering a set of line segments in sensor networks. A line segment ` is said…
We investigate a fundamental vertex-deletion problem called (Induced) Subgraph Hitting: given a graph $G$ and a set $\mathcal{F}$ of forbidden graphs, the goal is to compute a minimum-sized set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that $G-S$ does…
We present algorithms for the online minimum hitting set problem in geometric range spaces: given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane and a sequence of geometric objects that arrive one-by-one, we need to maintain a hitting set at all…
Given a set $P$ of $n$ points and a set $S$ of $m$ disks in the plane, the disk hitting set problem asks for a smallest subset of $P$ such that every disk of $S$ contains at least one point in the subset. The problem is NP-hard. In this…
