We consider the Node-weighted Steiner Forest problem on planar graphs. Demaine et al. showed that a generic primal-dual algorithm gives a 6-approximation. We present two different proofs of an approximation factor of~3. Then, we draw a connection to Goem ...
Let G = (V, E) denote a simple graph with vertex set V and edge set E. The profile of a vertex set V' subset of V denotes the multiset of pairwise distances between the vertices of V'. Two disjoint subsets of V are homometric if their profiles are the same ...
Graphs labeled with complex-valued Gabor jets are one of the important data formats for face recognition and the classification of facial images into medically relevant classes like genetic syndromes. We here present an interpolation rule and an iterative ...
We present a novel method for building a multiresolution representation of large digital surface models. The surface points coincide with the nodes of a planar graph which can be processed using a critically sampled, invertible lifting scheme. To drive the ...
A simple topological graph is a graph drawn in the plane so that its edges are represented by continuous arcs with the property that any two of them meet at most once. Let be a complete simple topological graph on vertices. The three edges induced by any t ...
The main goal of this paper is to formalize and explore a connection between chromatic properties of graphs defined by geometric representations and competitivity analysis of on-line algorithms. This connection became apparent after the recent construction ...
We show a close connection between structural hardness for k-partite graphs and tight inapproximability results for scheduling problems with precedence constraints. Assuming a natural but nontrivial generalisation of the bipartite structural hardness resul ...
We prove that every 3-coloring of the edges of the complete graph on n vertices without a rainbow triangle contains a set of order ohm(n(1/3) log(2) n) which uses at most two colors, and this bound is tight up to a constant factor. This verifies a conjectu ...
A simple topological graph G is a graph drawn in the plane so that any pair of edges have at most one point in common, which is either an endpoint or a proper crossing. G is called saturated if no further edge can be added without violating this condition. ...
We present a new approach for matching sets of branching curvilinear structures that form graphs embedded in R2 or R3 and may be subject to deformations. Unlike earlier methods, ours does not rely on local appearance similarity nor does require a good init ...
