Simulation-based approach to estimation of latent variable models
We propose a simulation-based method for calculating maximum likelihood estimators in latent variable models. The proposed method integrates a recently developed sampling strategy...

Improved Moves for Truncated Convex Models
We consider the problem of obtaining the approximate maximum a posteriori estimate of a discrete random field characterized by pairwise potentials that form a truncated convex mod...

Minimizing Request Blocking in All-Optical Rings
— In all-optical networks that use WDM technology it is often the case that several communication requests have to be blocked, due to bandwidth and technology limitations. Minimi...

Partition-Based Decision Heuristics for Image Computation Using SAT and BDDs
Methods based on Boolean satisfiability (SAT) typically use a Conjunctive Normal Form (CNF) representation of the Boolean formula, and exploit the structure of the given problem ...

Edge-Disjoint Paths in Planar Graphs
We study the maximum edge-disjoint paths problem in undirected planar graphs: given a graph G and node pairs (demands) s1t1, s2t2, . . ., sktk, the goal is to maximize the number ...
