 Maximum coverage problem

The Maximum Coverage Problem is a well-known problem in combinatorial optimization and computer science. It can be described as follows: Given a finite set \( U \) (the universe) and a collection of subsets \( S_1, S_2, \ldots, S_m \) of \( U \), the goal is to select a certain number \( k \) of these subsets such that the number of unique elements covered by the selected subsets is maximized.
