In the minimum constraint removal ([Formula: see text]), there is no feasible path to move from a starting point towards the goal, and the minimum constraints should be removed in order to find a collision-free path. It has been proved that [Formula: see text] problem is NP-hard when constraints have arbitrary shapes or even they are in shape of convex polygons. However, it has a simple linear solution when constraints are lines and the problem is open for other cases yet. In this paper, using a reduction from Subset Sum problem, in three steps, we show that the problem is NP-hard for both weighted and unweighted line segments.

All exact algorithms for solving subset sum problem (SUBSET\_SUM) are exponential (brute force, branch and bound search, dynamic programming which is pseudo-polynomial). To find the approximate solutions both a classical greedy algorithm and its improved variety, and different approximation schemes are used.This paper is an attempt to build another greedy algorithm by transferring representation of analytic geometry to such an object of discrete structure as a set. Set of size $n$ is identified with $n$-dimensional space with Euclidean metric, the subset-sum is identified with (hyper)plane.
