Stability Yields a PTAS for k-Median and k-Means Clustering
We consider k-median clustering in finite metric spaces and k-means clustering in Euclidean spaces, in the setting where k is part of the input (not a constant). For the k-means pr...

Approximation Algorithms for Data Distribution with Load Balancing of Web Servers
Given the increasing traffic on the World Wide Web (Web), it is difficult for a single popular Web server to handle the demand from its many clients. By clustering a group of Web ...

Efficient Belief Propagation with Learned Higher-Order Markov Random Fields
Belief propagation (BP) has become widely used for low-level vision problems and various inference techniques have been proposed for loopy graphs. These methods typically rely on a...

Improving convergence of the stochastic decomposition algorithm by using an efficient sampling technique
This work focuses on the basic stochastic decomposition (SD) algorithm of Higle and Sen [J.L. Higle, S. Sen, Stochastic Decomposition, Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1996] for two-st...

Beyond Trees: MRF Inference via Outer-Planar Decomposition
Maximum a posteriori (MAP) inference in Markov Random Fields (MRFs) is an NP-hard problem, and thus research has focussed on either finding efficiently solvable subclasses (e.g. t...
