We develop a novel framework, the implicit hitting set approach, for solving a class of combinatorial optimization problems. The explicit hitting set problem is as follows: given a set U and a family ...
People sometimes exhibit implicit bias. One famous example is the unintentional preference for people who belong to the same (ethnical) group. Implicit bias is often seen as a stable, unconscious ...
On Monday the 2nd of December 2019, M.Sc. Paul Saikko will defend his doctoral thesis on Implicit Hitting Set Algorithms for Constraint Optimization. The thesis is a part of research done in the ...

Once Hilbert asserted that the axioms of a theory 'define' the primitive concepts of its language 'implicitly'. Thus when someone inquires about the meaning of the set-concept, the standard response ...
