Tree sets are posets with additional structure that generalize tree-like objects in graphs, matroids, or other combinatorial structures. They are a special class of abstract separation systems. We study infinite tree sets and how they…
This paper presents a selected tour through the theory and applications of lifts of convex sets. A lift of a convex set is a higher-dimensional convex set that projects onto the original set. Many convex sets have lifts that are…
We study an abstract notion of tree structure which lies at the common core of various tree-like discrete structures commonly used in combinatorics: trees in graphs, order trees, nested subsets of a set, tree-decompositions of graphs and…
Any solid object can be decomposed into a collection of convex polytopes (in short, convexes). When a small number of convexes are used, such a decomposition can be thought of as a piece-wise approximation of the geometry. This…
Tree sets are abstract structures that can be used to model various tree-shaped objects in combinatorics. Finite tree sets can be represented by finite graph-theoretical trees. We extend this representation theory to infinite tree sets.…
We learn sensor trees from training data to minimize sensor acquisition costs during test time. Our system adaptively selects sensors at each stage if necessary to make a confident classification. We pose the problem as empirical risk…
Phylogenetic trees are used to model evolution: leaves are labelled to represent contemporary species ("taxa") and interior vertices represent extinct ancestors. Informally, convex characters are measurements on the contemporary species in…
Connected acyclic graphs (trees) are data objects that hierarchically organize categories. Collections of trees arise in a diverse variety of fields, including evolutionary biology, public health, machine learning, social sciences and…
In this study, after given the definition of soft sets and their basic operations we define convex soft sets which is an important concept for operation research, optimization and related problems. Then, we define concave soft sets and give…
The geometric problem of estimating an unknown compact convex set from evaluations of its support function arises in a range of scientific and engineering applications. Traditional approaches typically rely on estimators that minimize the…
This is a survey article on trees, with a modest number of proofs to give a flavor of the way these topologies can be efficiently handled. Trees are defined in set-theorist fashion as partially ordered sets in which the elements below each…
Treemaps are a popular technique to visualize hierarchical data. The input is a weighted tree $\tree$ where the weight of each node is the sum of the weights of its children. A treemap for $\tree$ is a hierarchical partition of a rectangle…
We consider the problem of projecting a convex set onto a subspace, or equivalently formulated, the problem of computing a set obtained by applying a linear mapping to a convex feasible set. This includes the problem of approximating convex…
The problem of selecting a small, yet high quality subset of patterns from a larger collection of itemsets has recently attracted lot of research. Here we discuss an approach to this problem using the notion of decomposable families of…
In this paper, we show that there is a close relation between consistency in a constraint network and set intersection. A proof schema is provided as a generic way to obtain consistency properties from properties on set intersection. This…
A decision tree is commonly restricted to use a single hyperplane to split the covariate space at each of its internal nodes. It often requires a large number of nodes to achieve high accuracy, hurting its interpretability. In this paper,…
In the present paper, classical tools of convex analysis are used to study the solution set to a certain class of set-inclusive generalized equations. A condition for the solution existence and global error bounds is established, in the…
We consider the problem of learning the structure of undirected graphical models with bounded treewidth, within the maximum likelihood framework. This is an NP-hard problem and most approaches consider local search techniques. In this…
We propose an abstract definition of convex spaces as sets where one can take convex combinations in a consistent way. A priori, a convex space is an algebra over a finitary version of the Giry monad. We identify the corresponding Lawvere…
In phylogenetics, a key problem is to construct evolutionary trees from collections of characters where, for a set X of species, a character is simply a function from X onto a set of states. In this context, a key concept is convexity,…
