Everything about Coreset

Computational geometry and optimization concept

In computational geometry and approximation algorithms, a coreset is a small, possibly weighted subset of an input point set that approximately preserves the value of a specified optimization problem. Solving the problem on the coreset yields a solution whose cost is provably close to the optimal solution for the full dataset. Coresets are widely used in geometric optimization, cluster analysis, data streams, and large-scale machine learning to reduce computational complexity while maintaining theoretical guarantees.

đź“– Definitions

Noun A small set of points that approximates the shape of a larger point set, in the sense that applying some geometric measure to the two sets (such as their minimum bounding box volume) results in approximately equal numbers.
