This paper deals with the maximum weighted independent set (MWIS) problem. We consider several robust variants of the MWIS problem on trees and prove that most of them are NP-hard. We propose a heuristic for solving the considered robust MWIS variants, which is customized for trees. We demonstrate by experiments that our algorithm produces high-quality solutions and runs much faster than a general-purpose optimization software.
