Notice: The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates. Full accuracy metrics and methodology are described in Coakley et alK. L. Coakley, T.

Research Type Theoretical We propose a general technical framework to overcome the challenge posed by varying radii in So R, which yields fixed-parameter tractable (fpt) algorithms with respect to k (i.e., whose running time is f(k)ploy(n) for some f). Our framework is versatile and obtains fpt approximation algorithms with constant approximation ratios for So R as well as its variants in general metrics, such as Fair So R and Matroid So R, which significantly improve the previous results. Our main result is a unified framework that returns (2+ε)-approximation for So R and (3+ε)-approximation for both Fair So R and Mat So R respectively that all run in times of 2k log(k/ε)n O(1).
