A Gradient Descent Approximation for Graph Cuts
Abstract. Graph cuts have become very popular in many areas of computer vision including segmentation, energy minimization, and 3D reconstruction. Their ability to find optimal res...

An Improved Approximation Algorithm for Multiway Cut
Given an undirected graph with edge costs and a subset of k nodes called terminals, a multiway cut is a subset of edges whose removal disconnects each terminal from the rest. Mult...

Combinatorial Algorithms for Data Migration to Minimize Average Completion Time
The data migration problem is to compute an efficient plan for moving data stored on devices in a network from one configuration to another. It is modeled by a transfer graph, wher...

Fast Approximate Energy Minimization via Graph Cuts
In this paper we address the problem of minimizing a large class of energy functions that occur in early vision. The major restriction is that the energy function's smoothnes...

An Approximation Scheme for Terrain Guarding
We obtain a polynomial time approximation scheme for the terrain guarding problem improving upon several recent constant factor approximations. Our algorithm is a local search algo...
