What is decreased by the max-sum arc consistency algorithm?
Inference tasks in Markov random fields (MRFs) are closely related to the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) and its soft generalizations. In particular, MAP inference in MRF i...

OPTIMISTA: state minimization of asynchronous FSMs for optimum output logic
The optimal state minimization problem is to select a reduced state machine having the best logic implementation over all possible state reductions and encodings. A recent algorit...

Random walks based multi-image segmentation: Quasiconvexity results and GPU-based solutions
We recast the Cosegmentation problem using Random Walker (RW) segmentation as the core segmentation algorithm, rather than the traditional MRF approach adopted in the literature s...

The PCP theorem by gap amplification
The PCP theorem [3, 2] says that every language in NP has a witness format that can be checked probabilistically by reading only a constant number of bits from the proof. The cele...
