With the increase of intermittent renewable generation resources feeding into the electrical grid, Distribution System Operators (DSOs) must find ways to incorporate these new actors and adapt the grid to ensure stability and enable…

Many discrete optimization problems amount to selecting a feasible set of edges of least weight. We consider in this paper the context of spatial graphs where the positions of the vertices are uncertain and belong to known uncertainty sets.…

We initiate a systematic study of utilizing predictions to improve over approximation guarantees of classic algorithms, without increasing the running time. We propose a systematic method for a wide class of optimization problems that ask…

The construction of cut trees (also known as Gomory-Hu trees) for a given graph enables the minimum-cut size of the original graph to be obtained for any pair of vertices. Cut trees are a powerful back-end for graph management and mining,…

Graph states are a key resource for measurement-based quantum computation and quantum networking, but state-preparation costs limit their practical use. Graph states related by local complement (LC) operations are equivalent up to…

Fine-tuning is the process of adapting the pre-trained large language models (LLMs) for downstream tasks. Due to substantial parameters, fine-tuning LLMs on mobile devices demands considerable memory resources, and suffers from high…

Tree search algorithms, such as branch-and-bound, are the most widely used tools for solving combinatorial and nonconvex problems. For example, they are the foremost method for solving (mixed) integer programs and constraint satisfaction…

As the development of distributed systems progresses, more and more challenges arise and the need for developing optimized systems and for optimizing existing systems from multiple perspectives becomes more stringent. In this paper I…

Given a set $P$ of terminals in the plane and a partition of $P$ into $k$ subsets $P_1, ..., P_k$, a two-level rectilinear Steiner tree consists of a rectilinear Steiner tree $T_i$ connecting the terminals in each set $P_i$ ($i=1,...,k$)…

A fully threaded tree (FTT) for adaptive refinement of regular meshes is described. By using a tree threaded at all levels, tree traversals for finding nearest neighbors are avoided. All operations on a tree including tree modifications are…

Quantum annealing is a quantum algorithm for computing solutions to combinatorial optimization problems. This study proposes a method for minor embedding optimization problems onto sparse quantum annealing hardware graphs called 4-clique…

We consider an incremental variant of the rooted prize-collecting Steiner-tree problem with a growing budget constraint. While no incremental solution exists that simultaneously approximates the optimum for all budgets, we show that a…

While Structure from Motion (SfM) achieves great success in 3D reconstruction, it still meets challenges on large scale scenes. In this work, large scale SfM is deemed as a graph problem, and we tackle it in a divide-and-conquer manner.…

Fixed parameter tractable algorithms for bounded treewidth are known to exist for a wide class of graph optimization problems. While most research in this area has been focused on exact algorithms, it is hard to find decompositions of…

Quantum annealing (QA) has emerged as a powerful technique to solve optimization problems by taking advantages of quantum physics. In QA process, a bottleneck that may prevent QA to scale up is minor embedding step in which we embed…

Effective routing of entanglements over a quantum network is a fundamental problem in quantum communication. Due to the fragility of quantum states, it is difficult to route entanglements at long distances. Graph states can be utilized for…

We consider a variant of treewidth that we call clique-partitioned treewidth in which each bag is partitioned into cliques. This is motivated by the recent development of FPT-algorithms based on similar parameters for various problems. With…

Submodularity in combinatorial optimization has been a topic of many studies and various algorithmic techniques exploiting submodularity of a studied problem have been proposed. It is therefore natural to ask, in cases where the cost…

In the Steiner Tree problem we are given an edge weighted undirected graph $G = (V,E)$ and a set of terminals $R \subseteq V$. The task is to find a connected subgraph of $G$ containing $R$ and minimizing the sum of weights of its edges. We…
