Minimum Bounded Degree Spanning Trees
We consider the minimum cost spanning tree problem under the restriction that all degrees must be at most a given value k. We show that we can efficiently find a spanning tree o...

Further Improving Geometric Fitting
We give a formal definition of geometric fitting in a way that suits computer vision applications. We point out that the performance of geometric fitting should be evaluated in...

Instance-Optimal Geometric Algorithms
We prove the existence of an algorithm A for computing 2-d or 3-d convex hulls that is optimal for every point set in the following sense: for every set S of n points and for ever...

Globally Optimal Estimates for Geometric Reconstruction Problems
We introduce a framework for computing statistically optimal estimates of geometric reconstruction problems. While traditional algorithms often suffer from either local minima or ...

A General Framework for Bounds for Higher-Dimensional Orthogonal Packing Problems
Higher-dimensional orthogonal packing problems have a wide range of practical applications, including packing, cutting, and scheduling. In the context of a branch-and-bound framewo...
