A Multiscale Pyramid Transform for Graph Signals

Pierre Vandergheynst, David Shuman, Mohammadjavad Faraji

Multiscale transforms designed to process analog and discrete-time signals and images cannot be directly applied to analyze high-dimensional data residing on the vertices of a weighted graph, as they do not capture the intrinsic topology of the graph data ...

Distributed Graph-Based Control of Convoys of Heterogeneous Vehicles using Curvilinear Road Coordinates

Alcherio Martinoli, Milos Vasic, Inaki Navarro Oiza, Florian Zimmermann

This paper investigates the problem of controlling a heterogeneous group of vehicles with the aim of forming multi-lane convoys. We use a distributed, graph-based control law, implemented in a longitudinal coordinate system parallel to the road. Each vehic ...

A Precise Threshold For Quasi-Ramsey Numbers

János Pach

We consider the variation of Ramsey numbers introduced by Erdos and Pach [J. Graph Theory, 7 (1983), pp. 137-147], where instead of seeking complete or independent sets we only seek a t-homogeneous set, a vertex subset that induces a subgraph of minimum de ...

No Small Linear Program Approximates Vertex Cover within a Factor 2 - e

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Abbas Bazzi

The vertex cover problem is one of the most important and intensively studied combinatorial optimization problems. Khot and Regevproved that the problem is NP-hard to approximate within a factor2 - ∈, assuming the Unique Games Conjecture (UGC). This is tig ...

Improving Christofides' Algorithm for the s-t Path TSP

Hyung Chan An

We present a deterministic (1+root 5/2)-approximation algorithm for the s-t path TSP for an arbitrary metric. Given a symmetric metric cost on n vertices including two prespecified endpoints, the problem is to find a shortest Hamiltonian path between the t ...

Saturated simple and k-simple topological graphs

János Pach, Jan Kyncl

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. ...

A totally unimodular view of structured sparsity

Volkan Cevher, Marwa El Halabi

This paper describes a simple framework for structured sparse recovery based on convex optimization. We show that many interesting structured sparsity models can be naturally represented by linear matrix inequalities on the support of the unknown parameter ...

Approximating ATSP by Relaxing Connectivity

Ola Nils Anders Svensson

The standard LP relaxation of the asymmetric traveling salesman problem has been conjectured to have a constant integrality gap in the metric case. We prove this conjecture when restricted to shortest path metrics of node-weighted digraphs. Our arguments a ...

Strong LP formulations for scheduling splittable jobs on unrelated machines

Ola Nils Anders Svensson

A natural extension of the makespan minimization problem on unrelated machines is to allow jobs to be partially processed by different machines while incurring an arbitrary setup time. In this paper we present increasingly stronger LP-relaxations for this ...

Fabrication-Aware Design with Performative Criteria

Yuliy Gennadievich Schwartzburg

Artists and architects often need to handle multiple constraints during design of physical constructions. We define a performative constraint as any constraint on design that is tied to the performance of the model--either during fabrication, construction, ...
