A classical problem of imaging--the matting problem--is separation of a non-rectangular foreground image from a (usually) rectangular background image--for example, in a film fram...
Despite the major role that modularity occupies in computer science, all the known results on modular analysis only treat particular problems, and there is no general unifying the...
We consider the discrepancy problem of coloring n intervals with k colors such that at each point on the line, the maximal difference between the number of intervals of any two co...
An original algorithm is presented that generates both restricted integer compositions and restricted integer partitions that can be constrained simultaneously by a) upper and low...
The problem of finding the most probable (MAP) configuration in graphical models comes up in a wide range of applications. In a general graphical model this problem is NP hard, bu...
