Approximation algorithms for orthogonal line centers

The problem of k orthogonal line center is about computing a set of k axis-parallel lines for a given set of points in ℜ2 such that the maximum among the distances between each point to its nearest line is minimized. A 2-factor approximation algorithm and a (53,32) bi-criteria approximation algorith...

Description
Summary:The problem of k orthogonal line center is about computing a set of k axis-parallel lines for a given set of points in ℜ2 such that the maximum among the distances between each point to its nearest line is minimized. A 2-factor approximation algorithm and a (53,32) bi-criteria approximation algorithm is presented for the problem. Both of them are deterministic approximation algorithms using combinatorial techniques and having sub-quadratic running times.
