Rainbow domination and related problems on some classes of perfect graphs
Let and let be a graph. A function is a rainbow function if, for every vertex with
, . The rainbow domination number
is the minimum of over all rainbow
functions. We investigate the rainbow domination problem for some classes of
perfect graphs
A survey on algorithmic aspects of modular decomposition
The modular decomposition is a technique that applies but is not restricted
to graphs. The notion of module naturally appears in the proofs of many graph
theoretical theorems. Computing the modular decomposition tree is an important
preprocessing step to solve a large number of combinatorial optimization
problems. Since the first polynomial time algorithm in the early 70's, the
algorithmic of the modular decomposition has known an important development.
This paper survey the ideas and techniques that arose from this line of
research
Graph-Based Classification of Omnidirectional Images
Omnidirectional cameras are widely used in such areas as robotics and virtual
reality as they provide a wide field of view. Their images are often processed
with classical methods, which might unfortunately lead to non-optimal solutions
as these methods are designed for planar images that have different geometrical
properties than omnidirectional ones. In this paper we study image
classification task by taking into account the specific geometry of
omnidirectional cameras with graph-based representations. In particular, we
extend deep learning architectures to data on graphs; we propose a principled
way of graph construction such that convolutional filters respond similarly for
the same pattern on different positions of the image regardless of lens
distortions. Our experiments show that the proposed method outperforms current
techniques for the omnidirectional image classification problem
The statistical mechanics of networks
We study the family of network models derived by requiring the expected
properties of a graph ensemble to match a given set of measurements of a
real-world network, while maximizing the entropy of the ensemble. Models of
this type play the same role in the study of networks as is played by the
Boltzmann distribution in classical statistical mechanics; they offer the best
prediction of network properties subject to the constraints imposed by a given
set of observations. We give exact solutions of models within this class that
incorporate arbitrary degree distributions and arbitrary but independent edge
probabilities. We also discuss some more complex examples with correlated edges
that can be solved approximately or exactly by adapting various familiar
methods, including mean-field theory, perturbation theory, and saddle-point
expansions.Comment: 15 pages, 4 figure
