A simple but empirically efficient heuristic algorithm for the edge-coloring of graphs is presented. Its basic idea is the displacement of "conflicts" (repeated colors in the edges incident to a vertex) along paths of adjacent vertices…

The cochromatic number $Z(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the fewest number of colors needed to color the vertices of $G$ so that each color class is a clique or an independent set. In a fractional cocoloring of $G$ a non-negative weight is assigned…

Graph coloring is one of the central problems in distributed graph algorithms. Much of the research on this topic has focused on coloring with $\Delta+1$ colors, where $\Delta$ denotes the maximum degree. Using $\Delta+1$ colors may be…

Transforming a thermal infrared image into a realistic RGB image is a challenging task. In this paper we propose a deep learning method to bridge this gap. We propose learning the transformation mapping using a coarse-to-fine generator that…
Inpainting-based codecs store sparse, quantised pixel data directly and decode by interpolating the discarded image parts. This interpolation can be used simultaneously for efficient coding by predicting pixel data to be stored. Such joint…
