Streaming Geometric Optimization Using Graphics Hardware
In this paper we propose algorithms for solving a variety of geometric optimization problems on a stream of points in R2 or R3 . These problems include various extent measures (e.g...

On the Inapproximability of Vertex Cover on k-Partite k-Uniform Hypergraphs
Computing a minimum vertex cover in graphs and hypergraphs is a well-studied optimizaton problem. While intractable in general, it is well known that on bipartite graphs, vertex c...

Planar Cycle Covering Graphs
We describe a new variational lower-bound on the minimum energy configuration of a planar binary Markov Random Field (MRF). Our method is based on adding auxiliary nodes to every...

Circular partitions with applications to visualization and embeddings
We introduce a hierarchical partitioning scheme of the Euclidean plane, called circular partitions. Such a partition consists of a hierarchy of convex polygons, each having small ...

Edge Disjoint Paths in Moderately Connected Graphs
Abstract. We study the Edge Disjoint Paths (EDP) problem in undirected graphs: Given a graph G with n nodes and a set T of pairs of terminals, connect as many terminal pairs as pos...
