Random walks on polytopes and an affine interior point method for linear programming
Let K be a polytope in Rn defined by m linear inequalities. We give a new Markov Chain algorithm to draw a nearly uniform sample from K. The underlying Markov Chain is the first t...

Solving Markov Random Fields using Second Order Cone Programming Relaxations
This paper presents a generic method for solving Markov random fields (MRF) by formulating the problem of MAP estimation as 0-1 quadratic programming (QP). Though in general solvi...
