The concept of neighbor system, introduced by Hartvigsen (2009), is a set of integral vectors satisfying a certain combinatorial property. In this paper, we reveal the relationship of neighbor systems with jump systems and with bisubmodular polyhedra. We firstly prove that for every neighbor system, there exists a jump system which has the same neighborhood structure as the original neighbor sy...

Over the last decade, an immense amount of data has become available. From collections of photos, to genetic data, and to network traffic statistics, modern technologies and cheap storage have made it possible to accumulate huge datasets. But how can we effectively use all this data? The ever growing sizes of the datasets make it imperative to design new algorithms capable of sifting through th...

The neighbor-joining algorithm is a popular phylogenetics method for constructing trees from dissimilarity maps. The neighbor-net algorithm is an extension of the neighbor-joining algorithm and is used for constructing split networks. We begin by describing the output of neighbor-net in terms of the tessellation of M n 0 by associahedra. This highlights the fact that neighbor-net outputs a tree...

with quick development of digital images and the availability of imaging tools, massive amounts of images are created. therefore, efficient management and suitable retrieval, especially by computers, is one of themost challenging fields in image processing. automatic image annotation (aia) or refers to attaching words, keywords or comments to an image or to a selected part of it. in this paper,...
