The generalized hypertree width GHW(H) of a hypergraph H is a measure of its cyclicity. Classes of conjunctive queries or constraint satisfaction problems whose associated hypergr...
In this paper, we focus on the Image Registration problem. Mathematically, this problem consists of minimizing an energy which is composed of a regularization term and a similarit...
Quadratic optimization lies at the very heart of many structural pattern recognition and computer vision problems, such as graph matching, object recognition, image segmentation, ...
Regret minimization has proven to be a very powerful tool in both computational learning theory and online algorithms. Regret minimization algorithms can guarantee, for a single de...
In contrast to proteins, many classes of functionally related RNA molecules show a rather weak sequence conservation but instead a fairly well conserved secondary structure. Hence ...
