Efficiently Learning Random Fields for Stereo Vision with Sparse Message Passing
As richer models for stereo vision are constructed, there is a growing interest in learning model parameters. To estimate parameters in Markov Random Field (MRF) based stereo formu...

Random Bichromatic Matchings
Given a graph with edges colored Red and Blue, we wish to sample and approximately count the number of perfect matchings with exactly k Red edges. We study a Markov chain on the sp...

A Deterministic Approximation Algorithm for Maximum 2-Path Packing
This paper deals with the maximum-weight 2-path packing problem (M2PP), which is the problem of computing a set of vertex-disjoint paths of length 2 in a given edge-weighted compl...

Constant-Time Approximation Algorithms via Local Improvements
We present a technique for transforming classical approximation algorithms into constant-time algorithms that approximate the size of the optimal solution. Our technique is applic...
