In this paper, we propose novel algorithms for inferring the Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) solution of discrete pairwise random field models under multiple constraints. We show how this constrained discrete optimization problem can be…
The standard oracle model for matroid algorithms assumes that each independence query can be answered in constant time, regardless of the size of the queried set. While this abstraction has underpinned much of the theoretical progress in…
Many different deep networks have been used to approximate, accelerate or improve traditional image operators. Among these traditional operators, many contain parameters which need to be tweaked to obtain the satisfactory results, which we…
We study the algebraic matroid induced by the ideal of (r+1)-minors of a matrix of variables over a field. This is inherently connected to the bounded-rank matrix completion problem, in which the aim is to complete a partially observed rank…
We introduce ideas that complement the many known connections between polymatroids and graph coloring. Given a hypergraph that satisfies certain conditions, we construct polymatroids, given as rank functions, that can be written as sums of…
When we deal with a matroid ${\mathcal M}=(U,{\mathcal I})$, we usually assume that it is implicitly given by means of the independence (IND) oracle. Time complexity of many existing algorithms is polynomially bounded with respect to $|U|$…
The maximum independent set problem is one of the most important problems in graph algorithms and has been extensively studied in the line of research on the worst-case analysis of exact algorithms for NP-hard problems. In the weighted…
At present, practical application and theoretical discussion of rough sets are two hot problems in computer science. The core concepts of rough set theory are upper and lower approximation operators based on equivalence relations. Matroid,…
In this paper, we address the weighted linear matroid intersection problem from the computation of the degree of the determinants of a symbolic matrix. We show that a generic algorithm computing the degree of noncommutative determinants,…
Bi-objective optimization problems on matroids are in general intractable and their corresponding decision problems are in general NP-hard. However, if one of the objective functions is restricted to binary cost coefficients the problem…
The weak-map order on the matroid base polytopes is the partial order defined by inclusion. Lucas proved that the base polytope of no binary matroid includes the base polytope of a connected matroid. A matroid base polytope is said to be…
We consider the following Stochastic Boolean Function Evaluation problem, which is closely related to several problems from the literature. A matroid $\mathcal{M}$ (in compact representation) on ground set $E$ is given, and each element…
Perturbed graphic matroids are binary matroids that can be obtained from a graphic matroid by adding a noise of small rank. More precisely, r-rank perturbed graphic matroid M is a binary matroid that can be represented in the form I +P,…
In this paper we focus on the solution of shifted quasiseparable systems and of more general parameter dependent matrix equations with quasiseparable representations. We propose an efficient algorithm exploiting the invariance of the…
We propose a functional view of matrix decomposition problems on graphs such as geometric matrix completion and graph regularized dimensionality reduction. Our unifying framework is based on the key idea that using a reduced basis to…
For two matroids $M_1$ and $M_2$ with the same ground set $V$ and two cost functions $w_1$ and $w_2$ on $2^V$, we consider the problem of finding bases $X_1$ of $M_1$ and $X_2$ of $M_2$ minimizing $w_1(X_1)+w_2(X_2)$ subject to a certain…
Hypergraphics matroids were studied first by Lorea and later by Frank et al. They can be seen as generalizations of graphic matroids. Here we show that several algorithms developed for the graphic case can be extended to hypergraphic…
This dissertation presents new results on three different themes all related to matroid polytopes. First we investigate properties of Ehrhart polynomials of matroid polytopes, independence matroid polytopes, and polymatroids. We prove that…
