Abstract Computer vision is full of problems elegantly expressed in terms of energy minimization. We characterize a class of energies with hierarchical costs and propose a novel hi...

Approximation has been shown to be an eective method for reducing the time and space costs of solving various oorplan area minimization problems. In this paper, we present several...
Two new algorithms for performing arithmetic coding without employing multiplication are presented. The first algorithm, suitable for an alphabet of arbitrary size, reduces the wo...
The α-expansion algorithm [4] has had a significant impact in computer vision due to its generality, effectiveness, and speed. Thus far it can only minimize energies that involv...

Many problems in computer vision can be modeled using
conditional Markov random fields (CRF). Since finding
the maximum a posteriori (MAP) solution in such models
is NP-hard, mu...
