In this work, we extend a common framework for seeded
image segmentation that includes the graph cuts, ran-
dom walker, and shortest path optimization algorithms.
Viewing an ima...

We design distributed and quantized average consensus algorithms on arbitrary connected networks. By construction, quantized algorithms cannot produce a real, analog average. Inst...
