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...

Optimal Insertion of a Segment Highway in a City Metric
Given two sets of points in the plane, we are interested in locating a highway h such that an objective function on the city distance between points of the two sets is minimized (w...
