Strongly polynomial and fully combinatorial algorithms for bisubmodular function minimization
Bisubmodular functions are a natural "directed", or "signed", extension of submodular functions with several applications. Recently Fujishige and Iwata showed ...

A Combinatorial Algorithm Minimizing Submodular Functions in Strongly Polynomial Time
We give a strongly polynomial-time algorithm minimizing a submodular function f given by a value-giving oracle. The algorithm does not use the ellipsoid method or any other linear ...

Efficient Minimization of Decomposable Submodular Functions
Many combinatorial problems arising in machine learning can be reduced to the problem of minimizing a submodular function. Submodular functions are a natural discrete analog of co...
