In this paper, we propose two simple yet efficient computational algorithms to obtain approximate optimal designs for multi-dimensional linear regression on a large variety of design spaces. We focus on the two commonly used optimal…
As modeling and visualization applications proliferate, there arises a need to simplify large polygonal models at interactive rates. Unfortunately existing polygon mesh simplification algorithms are not well suited for this task because…
Under conditions that prevent tangential intersection, we prove quadratic convergence of a projection algorithm for the feasibility problem of finding a point in the intersection of a smooth curve and line in $\mathbb{R}^2$. This nonconvex…
The input to the Multiway Cut problem is a weighted undirected graph, with nonnegative edge weights, and $k$ designated terminals. The goal is to partition the vertices of the graph into $k$ parts, each containing exactly one of the…
Positive linear programs (LP), also known as packing and covering linear programs, are an important class of problems that bridges computer science, operations research, and optimization. Despite the consistent efforts on this problem, all…
Converting a parametric curve into the implicit form, which is called implicitization, has always been a popular but challenging problem in geometric modeling and related applications. However, the existing methods mostly suffer from the…
We consider the problem of approximating a two-dimensional shape contour (or curve segment) using discrete assembly systems, which allow to build geometric structures based on limited sets of node and edge types subject to edge length and…
In this paper, we study temporal splitting algorithms for multiscale problems. The exact fine-grid spatial problems typically require some reduction in degrees of freedom. Multiscale algorithms are designed to represent the fine-scale…
In this paper, we present two approximation algorithms for the directed multi-multiway cut and directed multicut problems. The so called region growing paradigm \cite{1} is modified and used for these two cut problems on directed graphs. By…
In a multiobjective optimization problem a solution is called Pareto-optimal if no criterion can be improved without deteriorating at least one of the other criteria. Computing the set of all Pareto-optimal solutions is a common task in…
A key problem in multiobjective linear programming is to find the set of all efficient extreme points in objective space. In this paper we introduce oriented projective geometry as an efficient and effective framework for solving this…
We propose an exact algorithm for solving the longest simple path problem between two given vertices in undirected weighted graphs. By using graph partitioning and dynamic programming, we obtain an algorithm that is significantly faster…
A common approach to compute distances on continuous surfaces is by considering a discretized polygonal mesh approximating the surface and estimating distances on the polygon. We show that exact geodesic distances restricted to the polygon…
In this paper we propose and study a new complexity model for approximation algorithms. The main motivation are practical problems over large data sets that need to be solved many times for different scenarios, e.g., many multicast trees…
In this paper, a class of optimization problems with nonlinear inequality constraints is discussed. Based on the ideas of sequential quadratic programming algorithm and the method of strongly sub-feasible directions, a new superlinearly…
We give an algorithm for approximating a given plane curve segment by a planar elastic curve. The method depends on an analytic representation of the space of elastic curve segments, together with a geometric method for obtaining a good…
Maximum bipartite matching is a fundamental algorithmic problem which can be solved in polynomial time. We consider a natural variant in which there is a separation constraint: the vertices on one side lie on a path or a grid, and two…
New algorithms are devised for finding the maxima of multidimensional point samples, one of the very first problems studied in computational geometry. The algorithms are very simple and easily coded and modified for practical needs. The…
Using typical solution strategies to compute the solution curve of challenging problems often leads to the break down of the algorithm. To improve the solution process, numerical continuation methods have proved to be a very efficient tool.…
In this work, we provide the first practical evaluation of the structural rounding framework for approximation algorithms. Structural rounding works by first editing to a well-structured class, efficiently solving the edited instance, and…
