Graph-based image segmentation frames an image as a weighted graph in which pixels or regions correspond to nodes, and edges encode similarity or affinity between neighbouring elements. By formulating ...

Combinatorial optimization is of general interest for both theoretical study and real-world applications. Fast-developing quantum algorithms provide a different perspective on solving combinatorial ...

Abstract: Minimum cut/maximum flow (min-cut/max-flow) algorithms solve a variety of problems in computer vision and thus significant effort has been put into developing fast min-cut/max-flow ...
