A General Framework for Modeling and Processing Optimization Queries
An optimization query asks for one or more data objects that maximize or minimize some function over the data set. We propose a general class of queries, model-based optimization ...

Beyond Pairwise Energies: Efficient Optimization for Higher-order MRFs
In this paper, we introduce a higher-order MRF optimization framework. On the one hand, it is very general; we thus use it to derive a generic optimizer that can be applied to a...

Approximation algorithms for homogeneous polynomial optimization with quadratic constraints
In this paper, we consider approximation algorithms for optimizing a generic multi-variate homogeneous polynomial function, subject to homogeneous quadratic constraints. Such opti...
