Abstract:Finding small vertex covers in a graph has applications in numerous domains such as scheduling, computational biology, telecommunication networks, artificial intelligence, social science, and many more. Two common formulations of the problem include: Minimum Vertex Cover (MVC), which finds the smallest vertex cover in a graph, and Parameterized Vertex Cover (PVC), which finds a vertex cover whose size is less than or equal to some parameter k. Algorithms for both formulations involve traversing a search tree, … Show more
