Simpler and More General Minimization for Weighted Finite-State Automata
Previous work on minimizing weighted finite-state automata (including transducers) is limited to particular types of weights. We present efficient new minimization algorithms th...

An Approximate Max-Steiner-Tree-Packing Min-Steiner-Cut Theorem
Given an undirected multigraph G and a subset of vertices S V (G), the STEINER TREE PACKING problem is to find a largest collection of edge-disjoint trees that each connects S. T...

Optimally cutting a surface into a disk
We consider the problem of cutting a subset of the edges of a polyhedral manifold surface, possibly with boundary, to obtain a single topological disk, minimizing either the total...

A Randomized Cutting Plane Method with Probabilistic Geometric Convergence
Abstract. We propose a randomized method for general convex optimization problems; namely, the minimization of a linear function over a convex body. The idea is to generate N rando...

Mining discrete patterns via binary matrix factorization
Mining discrete patterns in binary data is important for subsampling, compression, and clustering. We consider rankone binary matrix approximations that identify the dominant patt...
