Approximation Schemes for Steiner Forest on Planar Graphs and Graphs of Bounded Treewidth
We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Steiner forest problem on planar graphs and, more generally, on graphs of bounded genus. As a first step, w...

Linear solution to scale invariant global figure ground separation
We propose a novel linear method for scale invariant figure ground separation in images and videos. Figure ground separation is treated as a superpixel labeling problem. We optim...

Integrality gaps for Sherali-Adams relaxations
We prove strong lower bounds on integrality gaps of Sherali?Adams relaxations for MAX CUT, Vertex Cover, Sparsest Cut and other problems. Our constructions show gaps for Sherali?A...

Approximate Min-Max Theorems of Steiner Rooted-Orientations of Hypergraphs
Given an undirected hypergraph and a subset of vertices S ⊆ V with a specified root vertex r ∈ S, the STEINER ROOTED-ORIENTATION problem is to find an orientation of all the...
