Motivated by the automatic generation of curved nonogram puzzles, we investigate possibilities to eliminate the popular faces in an arrangement by inserting a single additional curve. This turns out to be NP-hard; however, it becomes tractable when the number of popular faces is small: We present a randomized FPT-time algorithm where the parameter is the number of popular faces.","lang":"eng"}],"intvolume":" 28","quality_controlled":"1","status":"public","file_date_updated":"2024-12-03T09:45:00Z","day":"03","department":[{"_id":"UlWa"},{"_id":"HeEd"}],"date_created":"2024-12-01T23:01:54Z","type":"journal_article","scopus_import":"1","date_updated":"2024-12-03T09:49:18Z","article_type":"original","arxiv":1,"corr_author":"1","publication_identifier":{"issn":["1526-1719"]},"has_accepted_license":"1","page":"47-82","author":[{"last_name":"De Nooijer","full_name":"De Nooijer, Phoebe","first_name":"Phoebe"},{"full_name":"Terziadis, Soeren","first_name":"Soeren","last_name":"Terziadis"},{"last_name":"Weinberger","first_name":"Alexandra","full_name":"Weinberger, Alexandra"},{"full_name":"Masárová, Zuzana","orcid":"0000-0002-6660-1322","first_name":"Zuzana","last_name":"Masárová","id":"45CFE238-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"full_name":"Mchedlidze, Tamara","first_name":"Tamara","last_name":"Mchedlidze"},{"last_name":"Löffler","first_name":"Maarten","full_name":"Löffler, Maarten"},{"first_name":"Günter","full_name":"Rote, Günter","last_name":"Rote"}],"file":[{"file_name":"2024_JourGraphAlgorithms_deNooijer.pdf","content_type":"application/pdf","success":1,"relation":"main_file","file_size":1582493,"creator":"dernst","access_level":"open_access","date_updated":"2024-12-03T09:45:00Z","file_id":"18609","checksum":"be611da6f9d790dc980d6fb7283fe889","date_created":"2024-12-03T09:45:00Z"}],"oa_version":"Published Version","OA_place":"publisher","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","citation":{"short":"P.
