We give a generalization of the hypergreedy algorithm for minimum weight perfect matching on a complete edge weighted graph whose weights satisfy the triangle inequality. With a modified version of this algorithm we obtain a logn-approximate perfect matching heuristic for points in the Euclidean plane, inO(n log2n) time.
