Introduction What is this paper about? Overview The inputs are n points in the plane and a positive integer k, and we are asked to answer if we can cover these n points with at most k lines. Aman Anand (CSE, IITK) Algorithms for Covering Points with Lines 04/11/14 4 / 9
Introduction What is this paper about? Overview The inputs are n points in the plane and a positive integer k, and we are asked to answer if we can cover these n points with at most k lines. Our approach is based on fixed-parameter tractability and, in particular, kernelization. Aman Anand (CSE, IITK) Algorithms for Covering Points with Lines 04/11/14 4 / 9
Introduction What is this paper about? Overview The inputs are n points in the plane and a positive integer k, and we are asked to answer if we can cover these n points with at most k lines. Once instances are no longer susceptible to these reduction rules, we obtain a problem kernel whose size is bounded by a polynomial function of the parameter k and does not depend on the size n of the input.

Introduction Why Why I choose this paper? Much research has been done on covering point with lines. In this article, approximation algorithms or probabilistic algorithms that give an answer with a high probability of correctness were not considered. This paper discuss all the previous work done on this topic. Overall the proof style is nice and the proofs are easy to understand if you have basic knowledge of geometry.
