| Abstract | The search for minimum clique coverings of graphs appears in many practical guises and with several possible minimization goals. One reasonable goal is to minimize the number of overall cliques in a covering, while a second less well-studied but equally reasonable goal is to minimize the number of individual assignments of vertices to cliques. Both goals constitute NP-hard problems and as such require competitive algorithms for practical progress to be made toward their resolutions. In this article, we introduce a technique for accomplishing the latter goal, using a combination of data reduction and a backtracking algorithm. In addition, we demonstrate that it is not always possible to minimize both the number of cliques and the number of individual vertex-clique assignments simultaneously. This demonstration resolves an open question and underscores the need for techniques that specifically minimize the number of assignments of vertices to cliques. We then illustrate our approach in two practical examples. We follow these examples with a simulation-based comparison of our exact approach with a heuristic based on the state-of-the-art algorithm for minimizing the number of cliques in a clique covering. For this comparison, we consider graphs likely to arise in applied statistics, a category of applications for which minimizing individual vertex-clique assignments is of particular interest. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
