Placing Green Bridges Optimally, with a Multivariate Analysis
share
We study the problem of placing wildlife crossings, such as green bridges, over human-made obstacles to challenge habitat fragmentation. The main task herein is, given a graph describing habitats or routes of wildlife animals and possibilities of building green bridges, to find a low-cost placement of green bridges that connects the habitats. We develop different problem models for this task and study them from a computational complexity and parameterized algorithmics perspective.
