Abstract. We present a new method to break symmetry in graph coloring problems. While most alternative techniques add symmetry breaking predicates in a pre-processing step, we deve...
Shape skeleton extraction is a fundamental preprocessing task in shape-based pattern recognition. This paper presents a new algorithm for fast and precise extraction of kinematic ...
Personalized PageRank, related to random walks with restarts and conductance in resistive networks, is a frequent search paradigm for graph-structured databases. While efficient ba...
A triangulation of a planar point set S is a maximal plane straight-line graph with vertex set S. In the minimum weight triangulation (MWT) problem, we are looking for a triangula...
We present an expected polynomial time algorithm to generate a 2-connected unlabeled planar graph uniformly at random. To do this we first derive recurrence formulas to count the ...
