Given an undirected graph with edge lengths and a subset of nodes (called the terminals), the multiway cut (also called the multi-terminal cut) problem asks for a subset of edges,...
Lossless condensers are unbalanced expander graphs, with expansion close to optimal. Equivalently, they may be viewed as functions that use a short random seed to map a source on ...
Finding sparse cuts is an important tool for analyzing large graphs that arise in practice, such as the web graph, online social communities, and VLSI circuits. When dealing with s...

Markov Random Fields (MRFs) are ubiquitous in lowlevel computer vision. In this paper, we propose a new approach to the optimization of multi-labeled MRFs. Similarly to -expansion...
Query graphs with cuts are inspired by Sowa’s conceptual graphs, which are in turn based on Peirce’s existential graphs. In my thesis ‘The Logic System of Concept Graphs with...
