Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...

—In this paper, we will study a special Connected Dominating Set (CDS) problem — between any two nodes in a network, there exists at least one shortest path, all of whose inter...
The concept of graph cuts is by now a standard method
for all sorts of low level vision problems. Its popularity is
largely due to the fact that globally or near globally optimal...
