Minimizing energy functions on 4-connected lattices using elimination
We describe an energy minimization algorithm for functions defined on 4-connected lattices, of the type usually encountered in problems involving images. Such functions are often ...

Fast Boolean Minimizer for Completely Specified Functions
: We propose a simple and fast two-level minimization algorithm for completely specified functions in this paper. The algorithm is based on processing ternary trees. A ternary tree...

Unconstrained minimization of quadratic functions via min-sum
—Gaussian belief propagation is an iterative algorithm for computing the mean of a multivariate Gaussian distribution. Equivalently, the min-sum algorithm can be used to compute ...

Minimizing Symmetric Set Functions Faster
We describe a combinatorial algorithm which, given a monotone and consistent symmetric set function d on a finite set V in the sense of Rizzi [Riz00], constructs a non trivial set...

Estimating divergence functionals and the likelihood ratio by penalized convex risk minimization
We develop and analyze an algorithm for nonparametric estimation of divergence functionals and the density ratio of two probability distributions. Our method is based on a variati...
