摘要
Given a set of points on a line, a set of intervals along the line and an integer k, each point p is associated with a covering requirement cr(p), the goal of the minimum interval partial multi-cover (MinIPMC) problem is to select the minimum number of intervals to fully cover at least k points, where a point p is fully covered if it belongs to at least cr(p) selected intervals. This paper presents a 2-approximation algorithm for the MinIPMC problem.
