We show that an important and computationally challenging solution space feature of the graph coloring problem (COL), namely the number of clusters of solutions, can be accurately...
We present an (1+ε)-approximation algorithm for computing the minimum-spanning tree of points in a planar arrangement of lines, where the metric is the number of crossings betwee...
Illumination rendering including environment lighting, indirect illumination, and subsurface scattering plays for many graphics applications such as games and VR systems. However, ...
Many applications need to solve the problem of approximate string matching with block moves. It is an NP-Complete problem to compute block edit distance between two strings. Our go...
Finite mixture model is a powerful tool in many statistical learning problems. In this paper, we propose a general, structure-preserving approach to reduce its model complexity, w...
