In this paper we extend the class of energy functions for which the optimal -expansion and -swap moves can be computed in polynomial time. Specifically, we introduce a class of hi...
Optimization with graph cuts became very popular in recent years. Progress in problems such as stereo correspondence, image segmentation, etc., can be attributed, in part, to the ...
Abstract— The effectiveness of service provisioning in largescale networks is highly dependent on the number and location of service facilities deployed at various hosts. The cla...
d Abstract) Sara Ahmadian∗ Chaitanya Swamy∗ We consider the lower-bounded facility location (LBFL) problem (also sometimes called load-balanced facility location), which is a ...
A fundamental facility location problem is to choose the location of facilities, such as industrial plants and warehouses, to minimize the cost of satisfying the demand for some c...
