The Equivalence of Sampling and Searching
In a sampling problem, we are given an input x {0, 1} n , and asked to sample approximately from a probability distribution Dx over poly (n)-bit strings. In a search problem, we ...

Maximum Flows and Parametric Shortest Paths in Planar Graphs
We observe that the classical maximum flow problem in any directed planar graph G can be reformulated as a parametric shortest path problem in the oriented dual graph G . This ref...

Map Segmentation by Colour Cube Genetic K-Mean Clustering
Segmentation of a colour image composed of different kinds of texture regions can be a hard problem, namely to compute for an exact texture fields and a decision of the optimum num...

Finding Metric Structure in Information Theoretic Clustering
We study the problem of clustering discrete probability distributions with respect to the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence. This problem arises naturally in many applications. Our...

Embedding and similarity search for point sets under translation
Pattern matching in point sets is a well studied problem with numerous applications. We assume that the point sets may contain outliers (missing or spurious points) and are subjec...
