Abstract
Nowadays, maximizing the non-negative and non-submodular objective functions under Knapsack constraint or Cardinality constraint is deeply researched. Nevertheless, few studies study the objective functions with non-submodularity under the non-submodular constraint. And there are many practical applications of the situations, such as Epidemic transmission, and Sensor Placement and Feature Selection problem. In this paper, we study the maximization of the non-submodular objective functions under the non-submodular constraint. Based on the non-submodular constraint, we discuss the maximization of the objective functions with some specific properties, which includes the property of negative, and then, we obtain the corresponding approximate ratios by the greedy algorithm. What is more, these approximate ratios could be improved when the constraint becomes tight.
期刊介绍：
The aim of Discrete Applied Mathematics is to bring together research papers in different areas of algorithmic and applicable discrete mathematics as well as applications of combinatorial mathematics to informatics and various areas of science and technology. Contributions presented to the journal can be research papers, short notes, surveys, and possibly research problems. The "Communications" section will be devoted to the fastest possible publication of recent research results that are checked and recommended for publication by a member of the Editorial Board. The journal will also publish a limited number of book announcements as well as proceedings of conferences. These proceedings will be fully refereed and adhere to the normal standards of the journal.
Potential authors are advised to view the journal and the open calls-for-papers of special issues before submitting their manuscripts. Only high-quality, original work that is within the scope of the journal or the targeted special issue will be considered.
