A road map can be interpreted as a graph embedded in the plane, in which each vertex corresponds to a road junction and each edge to a particular road section. We consider the cartographic problem to place non-overlapping road labels along…
An overlap representation is an assignment of sets to the vertices of a graph in such a way that two vertices are adjacent if and only if the sets assigned to them overlap. The overlap number of a graph is the minimum number of elements…
Dynamic maps that allow continuous map rotations, e.g., on mobile devices, encounter new issues unseen in static map labeling before. We study the following dynamic map labeling problem: The input is a static, labeled map, i.e., a set P of…
A proper labeling of a graph is an assignment of integers to some elements of a graph, which may be the vertices, the edges, or both of them, such that we obtain a proper vertex coloring via the labeling subject to some conditions. The…
In this note we introduce a notion of a generically (strongly generically) NP-complete problem and show that the randomized bounded version of the halting problem is strongly generically NP-complete.
The objective of this article is to formalize the definition of NP problems. We construct a mathematical model of discrete problems as independence systems with weighted elements. We introduce two auxiliary sets that characterize the…
A complementary label (CL) simply indicates an incorrect class of an example, but learning with CLs results in multi-class classifiers that can predict the correct class. Unfortunately, the problem setting only allows a single CL for each…
We show that the following variant of labeling rotating maps is NP-hard, and present a polynomial approximation scheme for solving it. The input is a set of feature points on a map, to each of which a vertical bar of zero width is assigned.…
In this paper, we study the classification problem in which we have access to easily obtainable surrogate for true labels, namely complementary labels, which specify classes that observations do \textbf{not} belong to. Let $Y$ and $\bar{Y}$…
NP-complete problems should be hard on some instances but those may be extremely rare. On generic instances many such problems, especially related to random graphs, have been proven easy. We show the intractability of random instances of a…
The main purpose of this paper is to study the NP-complete subset-sum problem, not in the usual context of time-complexity-based classification of the algorithms (exponential/polynomial), but through a new kind of algorithmic classification…
Collecting labeled data is costly and thus a critical bottleneck in real-world classification tasks. To mitigate this problem, we propose a novel setting, namely learning from complementary labels for multi-class classification. A…
We consider several families of combinatorial polytopes associated with the following NP-complete problems: maximum cut, Boolean quadratic programming, quadratic linear ordering, quadratic assignment, set partition, set packing, stable set,…
Any satisfiability problem in conjunctive normal form can be solved in polynomial time by reducing it to a 3-sat formulation and transforming this to a Linear Complementarity problem (LCP) which is then solved as a linear program (LP). Any…
Recent research has examined algorithms to minimize robots' resource footprints. The class of combinatorial filters (discrete variants of widely-used probabilistic estimators) has been studied and methods for reducing their space…
We state a combinatorial optimization problem whose feasible solutions define both a decomposition and a node labeling of a given graph. This problem offers a common mathematical abstraction of seemingly unrelated computer vision tasks,…
Complementary-label learning is a weakly supervised learning problem in which each training example is associated with one or multiple complementary labels indicating the classes to which it does not belong. Existing consistent approaches…
Given a set of nonempty subsets of some universal set, their intersection graph is defined as the graph with one vertex for each set and two vertices are adjacent precisely when their representing sets have non-empty intersection. Sometimes…
This note presents an interesting counterexample to a basic covering problem.
These notes present an approach to obtaining monoid operations which are compatible with a given family of mappings in the sense that the mappings become left translations in the monoid. This can be applied to various situations such as the…
