چکیده

We design an algorithm for an exact solution of the Minimum Clique Partition Problem. For an arbitrary undirected graph G, we use a technique for nite partially ordered sets, in particular, a partition of such sets into the minimum number of paths. The running time of the algorithm is equal to O(n 6), where n is the number of graph vertices.

A PTAS for Minimum Clique Partition in Unit Disk Graphs

We consider the problem of partitioning the set of vertices of a given unit disk graph (UDG) into a minimum number of cliques. The problem is NP-hard and various constant factor approximations are known, with the current best ratio of 3. Our main result is a polynomial time approximation scheme (PTAS) for this problem on UDG. In fact, we present a robust algorithm that given a graph G (not nece...

On the complexity of edge-colored subgraph partitioning problems in network optimization

Network models allow one to deal with massive data sets using some standard concepts from graph theory. Understanding and investigating the structural properties of a certain data set is a crucial task in many practical applications of network optimization. Recently, labeled network optimization over colored graphs has been extensively studied. Given a (not necessarily properly) edge-colored gr...

MAXIMUM CLIQUE and MINIMUM CLIQUE PARTITION in Visibility Graphs

In an alternative approach to “characterizing” the graph class of visibility graphs of simple polygons, we study the problem of finding a maximum clique in the visibility graph of a simple polygon with n vertices. We show that this problem is very hard, if the input polygons are allowed to contain holes: a gap-preserving reduction from the maximum clique problem on general graphs implies that n...

Clique Partitions , Graph Compression and Speeding - up

We rst consider the problem of partitioning the edges of a graph G into bipartite cliques such that the total order of the cliques is minimized, where the order of a clique is the number of vertices in it. It is shown that the problem is NP-complete. We then prove the existence of a partition of small total order in a suuciently dense graph and devise an eecient algorithm to compute such a part...

Markov Random Fields with E cient Approximations

Markov Random Fields (MRF's) can be used for a wide variety of vision problems. In this paper we focus on MRF's with two-valued clique potentials, which form a generalized Potts model. We show that the maximum a posteriori estimate of such an MRF can be obtained by solving a multiway minimum cut problem on a graph. We develop eecient algorithms for computing good approximations to the minimum m...
