We show that this is tight, even on unit interval graphs of maximum degree 3. We show that on chordal graphs, the greedy algorithm is a ( 1 / 2 ) -approximation and that this is again tight. These results contrast with the known (tight) approximation ratio of 3 Δ + 2 of the ...
1. Approximation ratioCost: the size of the solution, for example, in vertex cover, it’s the size of the cover; in TSP, it’s the total distance.Since the approximation algorithm, the cost we have is always greater than the optimal solution.2. Vertex CoverRunning...
'Approximation Ratio' refers to the factor by which an algorithm's solution deviates from the optimal solution for a given computational problem. It is used to measure the efficiency and accuracy of approximation algorithms in solving complex computational tasks. ...
an algorithm that solves for acostof $2 an instance of a problem that has an optimal cost of $1 has approximation ratio 2; but an algorithm that sells 10 airplane tickets (aprofitof 10) when the optimum is 20 also has approximation ratio 2. An algorithm with approximation ratio k is c...

We design an approximation algorithm with the approximation ratio max{a, [(2−k)a+k−1]/k}, where a is the weighted proportion of “+” edges in all edges. As a varies from 0 to 1, the approximation ratio varies...
1.the process or result of making a rough calculation, estimate, or guess:he based his conclusion on his own approximation of the fuel consumption. 2.an imprecise or unreliable record or version:an approximation of what really happened.
The approximation ratio has subsequently been improved to 1.888 [16] and \(\frac{12}{7}\) [28]. The problem was also considered by Bilò et al. [4], who studied the approximation ratio of simpler algorithms, like cutting down the largest bamboo every day. This paper. We investigate ...
