The elastic-mode formulation of the problem of minimizing a nonlinear function subject to equilibrium constraints has appealing local properties in that, for a finite value of the...
A new framework is presented for both understanding and developing graph-cut based combinatorial algorithms suitable for the approximate optimization of a very wide class of MRFs ...
In this paper we study polynomial identity testing of sums of k read-once algebraic branching programs (Σk-RO-ABPs), generalizing the work of Shpilka and Volkovich [1, 2], who co...
In this paper we propose a novel algorithm for opinion summarization that takes account of content and coherence, simultaneously. We consider a summary as a sequence of sentences ...
Performance modeling for scientific applications is important for assessing potential application performance and systems procurement in high-performance computing (HPC). Recent ...
