Globally Optimal Pixel Labeling Algorithms for Tree Metrics
We consider pixel labeling problems where the label set forms a tree, and where the observations are also labels. Such problems arise in feature-space analysis with a very large...

Tree Embeddings for Two-Edge-Connected Network Design
The group Steiner problem is a classical network design problem where we are given a graph and a collection of groups of vertices, and want to build a min-cost subgraph that conne...

Black-box reductions for cost-sharing mechanism design
We consider the design of strategyproof cost-sharing mechanisms. We give two simple, but extremely versatile, black-box reductions, that in combination reduce the cost-sharing mec...

A fully polynomial time approximation scheme for timing driven minimum cost buffer insertion
As VLSI technology enters the nanoscale regime, interconnect delay has become the bottleneck of the circuit timing. As one of the most powerful techniques for interconnect optimiz...
