摘要: The problem of finding the consensus a given set strings is formally defined as follows: S = {s1, . sk}, and constant d, find, if it exists, string s*, such that Hamming distance s* from each does not exceed d. In this paper we study an LP relaxation for problem. We prove additive upper bound, depending only in number k, randomized bounds. show empirical results are much better. also compare our program with some algorithms reported literature, shown to perform well.
