Partitioning a graph into blocks of roughly equal weight while cutting only few edges is a fundamental problem in computer science with numerous practical applications. While shared-memory parallel partitioners have recently matured to…
Minimum Label Cut (or Hedge Connectivity) problem is defined as follows: given an undirected graph $G=(V, E)$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, in which, each edge is labeled (with one or multiple labels) from a label set $L=\{\ell_1,\ell_2,…
In this paper, we study the minimum dominating set (MDS) problem and the minimum total dominating set MTDS) problem which have many applications in real world. We propose a new idea to compute approximate MDS and MTDS. Next, we give an…
The minimum clique partition (MCP) problem is that of partitioning the vertex set of a given graph into a minimum number of cliques. Given $n$ points in the plane, the corresponding unit disk graph (UDG) has these points as vertices, and…
There are many applications of graph cuts in computer vision, e.g. segmentation. We present a novel method to reformulate the NP-hard, k-way graph partitioning problem as an approximate minimal s-t graph cut problem, for which a globally…
Deletion problems are those where given a graph $G$ and a graph property $\pi$, the goal is to find a subset of edges such that after its removal the graph $G$ will satisfy the property $\pi$. Typically, we want to minimize the number of…
We introduce a new structure for a set of points in the plane and an angle $\alpha$, which is similar in flavor to a bounded-degree MST. We name this structure $\alpha$-MST. Let $P$ be a set of points in the plane and let $0 < \alpha \le…
A graph is chordal if every cycle of length at least four contains a chord, that is, an edge connecting two nonconsecutive vertices of the cycle. Several classical applications in sparse linear systems, database management, computer vision,…
In this paper, we propose a simple but effective message passing method to improve the boundary quality for the semantic segmentation result. Inspired by the generated sharp edges of superpixel blocks, we employ superpixel to guide the…
We introduce a variant of the multiway cut that we call the min-max connected multiway cut. Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ and a set $\Gamma\subseteq V$ of $t$ terminals, partition $V$ into $t$ parts such that each part is connected and contains…
Assume n wireless mobile sensors are initially dispersed in an ad hoc manner in a rectangular region. They are required to move to final locations so that they can detect any intruder crossing the region in a direction parallel to the sides…
This paper investigates the energy complexity of distributed graph problems in multi-hop radio networks, where the energy cost of an algorithm is measured by the maximum number of awake rounds of a vertex. Recent works revealed that some…
The problem Power Dominating Set (PDS) is motivated by the placement of phasor measurement units to monitor electrical networks. It asks for a minimum set of vertices in a graph that observes all remaining vertices by exhaustively applying…
One of the main challenges facing wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is the limited power resources available at small sensor nodes. It is therefore desired to reduce the power consumption of sensors while keeping the distortion between the…
In the {\em capacitated} survivable network design problem (Cap-SNDP), we are given an undirected multi-graph where each edge has a capacity and a cost. The goal is to find a minimum cost subset of edges that satisfies a given set of…
Terminal devices (TDs) connect to networks through access points (APs) integrated into the edge server. This provides a prerequisite for TDs to upload tasks to cloud data centers or offload them to edge servers for execution. In this…
Given an edge-weighted undirected graph and a list of k source-sink pairs of vertices, the well-known minimum multicut problem consists in selecting a minimum-weight set of edges whose removal leaves no path between every source and its…
We prove essentially tight lower bounds, conditionally to the Exponential Time Hypothesis, for two fundamental but seemingly very different cutting problems on surface-embedded graphs: the Shortest Cut Graph problem and the Multiway Cut…
In a graph $G$, an efficient dominating set is a subset $D$ of vertices such that $D$ is an independent set and each vertex outside $D$ has exactly one neighbor in $D$. The Minimum Weight Efficient Dominating Set (Min-WED) problem asks for…
