Free-Shape Polygonal Object Localization

Pascal Fua, Christos Marios Christoudias, Xiaolu Sun

Polygonal objects are prevalent in man-made scenes. Early approaches to detecting them relied mainly on geometry while subsequent ones also incorporated appearance-based cues. It has recently been shown that this could be done fast by searching for cycles ...

Exponentiality of the exchange algorithm for finding another room-partitioning

Laura Sanità

Let T be a triangulated surface given by the list of vertex-triples of its triangles, called rooms. A room-partitioning for T is a subset R of the rooms such that each vertex of T is in exactly one room in R. Given a room-partitioning R for T, the exchange ...

Association Generation in Synthetic Population for Transportation Applications: Graph-Theoretic Solution

Michel Bierlaire, Bilal Farooq, Dimitrios Efthymiou, Paul Richard Anderson

The generation of synthetic populations through simulation methods is an important research topic and has a key application in agent-based modeling of transport and land use. The next step in this research area is the generation of complete synthetic house ...

On sums of graph eigenvalues

Joachim Stubbe

We use two variational techniques to prove upper bounds for sums of the lowest several eigenvalues of matrices associated with finite, simple, combinatorial graphs. These include estimates for the adjacency matrix of a graph and for both the standard combi ...

THE NUMBER OF EDGES IN k-QUASI-PLANAR GRAPHS

János Pach

A graph drawn in the plane is called k-quasi-planar if it does not contain k pair-wise crossing edges. It has been conjectured for a long time that for every fixed k, the maximum number of edges of a k-quasi-planar graph with n vertices is O(n). The best k ...

A Bayesian Method for Matching Two Similar Graphs without Seeds

Matthias Grossglauser, Pedram Pedarsani

Approximate graph matching (AGM) refers to the problem of mapping the vertices of two structurally similar graphs, which has applications in social networks, computer vision, chemistry, and biology. Given its computational cost, AGM has mostly been limited ...

Navigating Central Path with Electrical Flows: from Flows to Matchings, and Back

Aleksander Madry

We present an O(m^10/7) = O(m^1.43)-time algorithm for the maximum s-t flow and the minimum s-t cut problems in directed graphs with unit capacities. This is the first improvement over the sparse-graph case of the long-standing O(m min{m^1/2, n^2/3}) runni ...

On the Performance of Percolation Graph Matching

Matthias Grossglauser, Lyudmila Yartseva

Graph matching is a generalization of the classic graph isomorphism problem. By using only their structures a graph-matching algorithm finds a map between the vertex sets of two similar graphs. This has applications in the de-anonymization of social and in ...

Constrained Binary Identification Problem

Amin Karbasi, Morteza Zadimoghaddam

We consider the problem of building a binary decision tree, to locate an object within a set by way of the least number of membership queries. This problem is equivalent to the “20 questions game” of information theory and is closely related to lossless so ...

Lower bounds on the obstacle number of graphs

János Pach, Doemoetoer Palvoelgyi, Padmini Mukkamala

Given a graph G, an obstacle representation of G is a set of points in the plane representing the vertices of G, together with a set of connected obstacles such that two vertices of G are joined by an edge if and only if the corresponding points can be con ...
