Approximate MaxRS in Spatial Databases
Summary: Recasts 2D weighted MaxRS as a (1−ε)-approximation problem, trading an arbitrarily small loss in covered weight for substantially lower CPU/I/O cost. Presents fast algorithms with strong theoretical guarantees for finding near-optimal rectangle placements. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
