Optimizing with Constraints: A Case Study in Scheduling Maintenance of Electric Power Units
A well-studied problem in the electric power industry is that of optimally scheduling preventative maintenance of power generating units within a power plant. We show how these pr...

Learning Real-Time MRF Inference for Image Denoising
Many computer vision problems can be formulated in a Bayesian framework with Markov Random Field (MRF) or Conditional Random Field (CRF) priors. Usually, the model assumes that ...

Interactive image segmentation via minimization of quadratic energies on directed graphs
We propose a scheme to introduce directionality in the Random Walker algorithm for image segmentation. In particular, we extend the optimization framework of this algorithm to com...
