Consider the following problem: given a metric space, some of whose points are "clients," select a set of at most k facility locations to minimize the average distance f...

We consider optimization problems that can be formulated as minimizing the cost of a feasible solution wT x over an arbitrary combinatorial feasible set F {0, 1}n . For these pro...
Classic mosaic is one of the oldest and most durable art forms. There has been a growing interest in simulating classic mosaics from digital images recently. To be visually pleasin...
Algorithms for discrete energy minimization play a fundamental role for low-level vision. Known techniques include graph cuts, belief propagation (BP) and recently introduced tree-...
We consider the regression problem and describe an algorithm approximating the regression function by estimators piecewise constant on the elements of an adaptive partition. The pa...
