Image-Based Rendering of Synthetic Diffuse Objects in Natural Scenes
We present a method for solving the global illumination problem for synthetic diffuse objects. The approach generates realistic shading for applications where a synthetic object i...

Approximation algorithms via contraction decomposition
We prove that the edges of every graph of bounded (Euler) genus can be partitioned into any prescribed number k of pieces such that contracting any piece results in a graph of bou...

Approximating TSP on metrics with bounded global growth
The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is a canonical NP-complete problem which is known to be MAXSNP hard even on Euclidean metrics (of high dimensions) [40]. In order to circumven...

Cut-and-solve: An iterative search strategy for combinatorial optimization problems
Branch-and-bound and branch-and-cut use search trees to identify optimal solutions to combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we introduce an iterative search strategy...

Rearrangement Clustering: Pitfalls, Remedies, and Applications
Given a matrix of values in which the rows correspond to objects and the columns correspond to features of the objects, rearrangement clustering is the problem of rearranging the ...
