  text: We study the 3D reconstruction of plant roots from multiple 2D images. To
    meet the challenge caused by the delicate nature of thin branches, we make three
    innovations to cope with the sensitivity to image quality and calibration. First,
    we model the background as a harmonic function to improve the segmentation of
    the root in each 2D image. Second, we develop the concept of the regularized visual
    hull which reduces the effect of jittering and refraction by ensuring consistency
    with one 2D image. Third, we guarantee connectedness through adjustments to the
    3D reconstruction that minimize global error. Our software is part of a biological
    phenotype/genotype study of agricultural root systems. It has been tested on more
    than 40 plant roots and results are promising in terms of reconstruction quality
    and efficiency.

  text: Interpreting an image as a function on a compact sub- set of the Euclidean
    plane, we get its scale-space by diffu- sion, spreading the image over the entire
    plane. This gener- ates a 1-parameter family of functions alternatively defined
    as convolutions with a progressively wider Gaussian ker- nel. We prove that the
    corresponding 1-parameter family of persistence diagrams have norms that go rapidly
    to zero as time goes to infinity. This result rationalizes experimental observations
    about scale-space. We hope this will lead to targeted improvements of related
    computer vision methods.

  text: We consider two-player games played in real time on game structures with clocks
    where the objectives of players are described using parity conditions. The games
    are concurrent in that at each turn, both players independently propose a time
    delay and an action, and the action with the shorter delay is chosen. To prevent
    a player from winning by blocking time, we restrict each player to play strategies
    that ensure that the player cannot be responsible for causing a zeno run. First,
    we present an efficient reduction of these games to turn-based (i.e., not concurrent)
    finite-state (i.e., untimed) parity games. Our reduction improves the best known
    complexity for solving timed parity games. Moreover, the rich class of algorithms
    for classical parity games can now be applied to timed parity games. The states
    of the resulting game are based on clock regions of the original game, and the
    state space of the finite game is linear in the size of the region graph. Second,
    we consider two restricted classes of strategies for the player that represents
    the controller in a real-time synthesis problem, namely, limit-robust and bounded-robust
    winning strategies. Using a limit-robust winning strategy, the controller cannot
    choose an exact real-valued time delay but must allow for some nonzero jitter
    in each of its actions. If there is a given lower bound on the jitter, then the
    strategy is bounded-robust winning. We show that exact strategies are more powerful
    than limit-robust strategies, which are more powerful than bounded-robust winning
    strategies for any bound. For both kinds of robust strategies, we present efficient
    reductions to standard timed automaton games. These reductions provide algorithms
    for the synthesis of robust real-time controllers.

  text: In addition to being correct, a system should be robust, that is, it should
    behave reasonably even after receiving unexpected inputs. In this paper, we summarize
    two formal notions of robustness that we have introduced previously for reactive
    systems. One of the notions is based on assigning costs for failures on a user-provided
    notion of incorrect transitions in a specification. Here, we define a system to
    be robust if a finite number of incorrect inputs does not lead to an infinite
    number of incorrect outputs. We also give a more refined notion of robustness
    that aims to minimize the ratio of output failures to input failures. The second
    notion is aimed at liveness. In contrast to the previous notion, it has no concept
    of recovery from an error. Instead, it compares the ratio of the number of liveness
    constraints that the system violates to the number of liveness constraints that
    the environment violates.

  text: Parvalbumin is thought to act in a manner similar to EGTA, but how a slow
    Ca2+ buffer affects nanodomain-coupling regimes at GABAergic synapses is unclear.
    Direct measurements of parvalbumin concentration and paired recordings in rodent
    hippocampus and cerebellum revealed that parvalbumin affects synaptic dynamics
    only when expressed at high levels. Modeling suggests that, in high concentrations,
    parvalbumin may exert BAPTA-like effects, modulating nanodomain coupling via competition
    with local saturation of endogenous fixed buffers.

  text: We address the problem of metric learning for multi-view data, namely the
    construction of embedding projections from data in different representations into
    a shared feature space, such that the Euclidean distance in this space provides
    a meaningful within-view as well as between-view similarity. Our motivation stems
    from the problem of cross-media retrieval tasks, where the availability of a joint
    Euclidean distance function is a pre-requisite to allow fast, in particular hashing-based,
    nearest neighbor queries. We formulate an objective function that expresses the
    intuitive concept that matching samples are mapped closely together in the output
    space, whereas non-matching samples are pushed apart, no matter in which view
    they are available. The resulting optimization problem is not convex, but it can
    be decomposed explicitly into a convex and a concave part, thereby allowing efficient
    optimization using the convex-concave procedure. Experiments on an image retrieval
    task show that nearest-neighbor based cross-view retrieval is indeed possible,
    and the proposed technique improves the retrieval accuracy over baseline techniques.

  text: Powerful statistical models that can be learned efficiently from large amounts
    of data are currently revolutionizing computer vision. These models possess a
    rich internal structure reflecting task-specific relations and constraints. This
    monograph introduces the reader to the most popular classes of structured models
    in computer vision. Our focus is discrete undirected graphical models which we
    cover in detail together with a description of algorithms for both probabilistic
    inference and maximum a posteriori inference. We discuss separately recently successful
    techniques for prediction in general structured models. In the second part of
    this monograph we describe methods for parameter learning where we distinguish
    the classic maximum likelihood based methods from the more recent prediction-based
    parameter learning methods. We highlight developments to enhance current models
    and discuss kernelized models and latent variable models. To make the monograph
    more practical and to provide links to further study we provide examples of successful
    application of many methods in the computer vision literature.

  text: We study multi-label prediction for structured output spaces, a problem that
    occurs, for example, in object detection in images, secondary structure prediction
    in computational biology, and graph matching with symmetries. Conventional multi-label
    classification techniques are typically not applicable in this situation, because
    they require explicit enumeration of the label space, which is infeasible in case
    of structured outputs. Relying on techniques originally designed for single- label
    structured prediction, in particular structured support vector machines, results
    in reduced prediction accuracy, or leads to infeasible optimization problems.
    In this work we derive a maximum-margin training formulation for multi-label structured
    prediction that remains computationally tractable while achieving high prediction
    accuracy. It also shares most beneficial properties with single-label maximum-margin
    approaches, in particular a formulation as a convex optimization problem, efficient
    working set training, and PAC-Bayesian generalization bounds.

  text: We present a new decidable logic called TREX for expressing constraints about
    imperative tree data structures. In particular, TREX supports a transitive closure
    operator that can express reachability constraints, which often appear in data
    structure invariants. We show that our logic is closed under weakest precondition
    computation, which enables its use for automated software verification. We further
    show that satisfiability of formulas in TREX is decidable in NP. The low complexity
    makes it an attractive alternative to more expensive logics such as monadic second-order
    logic (MSOL) over trees, which have been traditionally used for reasoning about
    tree data structures.

  text: 'Automated termination provers often use the following schema to prove that
    a program terminates: construct a relational abstraction of the program''s transition
    relation and then show that the relational abstraction is well-founded. The focus
    of current tools has been on developing sophisticated techniques for constructing
    the abstractions while relying on known decidable logics (such as linear arithmetic)
    to express them. We believe we can significantly increase the class of programs
    that are amenable to automated termination proofs by identifying more expressive
    decidable logics for reasoning about well-founded relations. We therefore present
    a new decision procedure for reasoning about multiset orderings, which are among
    the most powerful orderings used to prove termination. We show that, using our
    decision procedure, one can automatically prove termination of natural abstractions
    of programs.'

  text: We introduce streaming data string transducers that map input data strings
    to output data strings in a single left-to-right pass in linear time. Data strings
    are (unbounded) sequences of data values, tagged with symbols from a finite set,
    over a potentially infinite data do- main that supports only the operations of
    equality and ordering. The transducer uses a finite set of states, a finite set
    of variables ranging over the data domain, and a finite set of variables ranging
    over data strings. At every step, it can make decisions based on the next in-
    put symbol, updating its state, remembering the input data value in its data variables,
    and updating data-string variables by concatenat- ing data-string variables and
    new symbols formed from data vari- ables, while avoiding duplication. We establish
    that the problems of checking functional equivalence of two streaming transducers,
    and of checking whether a streaming transducer satisfies pre/post verification
    conditions specified by streaming acceptors over in- put/output data-strings,
    are in PSPACE. We identify a class of imperative and a class of functional pro-
    grams, manipulating lists of data items, which can be effectively translated to
    streaming data-string transducers. The imperative pro- grams dynamically modify
    a singly-linked heap by changing next- pointers of heap-nodes and by adding new
    nodes. The main re- striction specifies how the next-pointers can be used for
    traversal. We also identify an expressively equivalent fragment of functional
    programs that traverse a list using syntactically restricted recursive calls.
    Our results lead to algorithms for assertion checking and for checking functional
    equivalence of two programs, written possibly in different programming styles,
    for commonly used routines such as insert, delete, and reverse.

  text: 'Weighted automata map input words to numerical values. Ap- plications of
    weighted automata include formal verification of quantitative properties, as well
    as text, speech, and image processing. A weighted au- tomaton is defined with
    respect to a semiring. For the tropical semiring, the weight of a run is the sum
    of the weights of the transitions taken along the run, and the value of a word
    is the minimal weight of an accepting run on it. In the 90’s, Krob studied the
    decidability of problems on rational series defined with respect to the tropical
    semiring. Rational series are strongly related to weighted automata, and Krob’s
    results apply to them. In par- ticular, it follows from Krob’s results that the
    universality problem (that is, deciding whether the values of all words are below
    some threshold) is decidable for weighted automata defined with respect to the
    tropical semir- ing with domain ∪ {∞}, and that the equality problem is undecidable
    when the domain is ∪ {∞}. In this paper we continue the study of the borders of
    decidability in weighted automata, describe alternative and direct proofs of the
    above results, and tighten them further. Unlike the proofs of Krob, which are
    algebraic in their nature, our proofs stay in the terrain of state machines, and
    the reduction is from the halting problem of a two-counter machine. This enables
    us to significantly simplify Krob’s reasoning, make the un- decidability result
    accessible to the automata-theoretic community, and strengthen it to apply already
    to a very simple class of automata: all the states are accepting, there are no
    initial nor final weights, and all the weights on the transitions are from the
    set {−1, 0, 1}. The fact we work directly with the automata enables us to tighten
    also the decidability re- sults and to show that the universality problem for
    weighted automata defined with respect to the tropical semiring with domain ∪
    {∞}, and in fact even with domain ≥0 ∪ {∞}, is PSPACE-complete. Our results thus
    draw a sharper picture about the decidability of decision problems for weighted
    automata, in both the front of containment vs. universality and the front of the
    ∪ {∞} vs. the ∪ {∞} domains.'

  text: We solve the open problems of translating, when possible, all common classes
    of nondeterministic word automata to deterministic and nondeterministic co-Büchi
    word automata. The handled classes include Büchi, parity, Rabin, Streett and Muller
    automata. The translations follow a unified approach and are all asymptotically
    tight. The problem of translating Büchi automata to equivalent co-Büchi automata
    was solved in [2], leaving open the problems of translating automata with richer
    acceptance conditions. For these classes, one cannot easily extend or use the
    construction in [2]. In particular, going via an intermediate Büchi automaton
    is not optimal and might involve a blow-up exponentially higher than the known
    lower bound. Other known translations are also not optimal and involve a doubly
    exponential blow-up. We describe direct, simple, and asymptotically tight constructions,
    involving a 2Θ(n) blow-up. The constructions are variants of the subset construction,
    and allow for symbolic implementations. Beyond the theoretical importance of the
    results, the new constructions have various applications, among which is an improved
    algorithm for translating, when possible, LTL formulas to deterministic Büchi
    word automata.

  text: 'We report on a generic uni- and bivariate algebraic kernel that is publicly
    available with CGAL 3.7. It comprises complete, correct, though efficient state-of-the-art
    implementations on polynomials, roots of polynomial systems, and the support to
    analyze algebraic curves defined by bivariate polynomials. The kernel design is
    generic, that is, various number types and substeps can be exchanged. It is accompanied
    with a ready-to-use interface to enable arrangements induced by algebraic curves,
    that have already been used as basis for various geometric applications, as arrangements
    on Dupin cyclides or the triangulation of algebraic surfaces. We present two novel
    applications: arrangements of rotated algebraic curves and Boolean set operations
    on polygons bounded by segments of algebraic curves. We also provide experiments
    showing that our general implementation is competitive and even often clearly
    outperforms existing implementations that are explicitly tailored for specific
    types of non-linear curves that are available in CGAL.'

  text: 'We consider the offset-deconstruction problem: Given a polygonal shape Q
    with n vertices, can it be expressed, up to a tolerance µ in Hausdorff distance,
    as the Minkowski sum of another polygonal shape P with a disk of fixed radius?
    If it does, we also seek a preferably simple-looking solution shape P; then, P''s
    offset constitutes an accurate, vertex-reduced, and smoothened approximation of
    Q. We give an O(n log n)-time exact decision algorithm that handles any polygonal
    shape, assuming the real-RAM model of computation. An alternative algorithm, based
    purely on rational arithmetic, answers the same deconstruction problem, up to
    an uncertainty parameter, and its running time depends on the parameter δ (in
    addition to the other input parameters: n, δ and the radius of the disk). If the
    input shape is found to be approximable, the rational-arithmetic algorithm also
    computes an approximate solution shape for the problem. For convex shapes, the
    complexity of the exact decision algorithm drops to O(n), which is also the time
    required to compute a solution shape P with at most one more vertex than a vertex-minimal
    one. Our study is motivated by applications from two different domains. However,
    since the offset operation has numerous uses, we anticipate that the reverse question
    that we study here will be still more broadly applicable. We present results obtained
    with our implementation of the rational-arithmetic algorithm.'

  text: We consider the problem of approximating all real roots of a square-free polynomial
    f. Given isolating intervals, our algorithm refines each of them to a width at
    most 2-L, that is, each of the roots is approximated to L bits after the binary
    point. Our method provides a certified answer for arbitrary real polynomials,
    only requiring finite approximations of the polynomial coefficient and choosing
    a suitable working precision adaptively. In this way, we get a correct algorithm
    that is simple to implement and practically efficient. Our algorithm uses the
    quadratic interval refinement method; we adapt that method to be able to cope
    with inaccuracies when evaluating f, without sacrificing its quadratic convergence
    behavior. We prove a bound on the bit complexity of our algorithm in terms of
    degree, coefficient size and discriminant. Our bound improves previous work on
    integer polynomials by a factor of deg f and essentially matches best known theoretical
    bounds on root approximation which are obtained by very sophisticated algorithms.

  text: Given an algebraic hypersurface O in ℝd, how many simplices are necessary
    for a simplicial complex isotopic to O? We address this problem and the variant
    where all vertices of the complex must lie on O. We give asymptotically tight
    worst-case bounds for algebraic plane curves. Our results gradually improve known
    bounds in higher dimensions; however, the question for tight bounds remains unsolved
    for d ≥ 3.

  text: We study the topology of the Megaparsec Cosmic Web in terms of the scale-dependent
    Betti numbers, which formalize the topological information content of the cosmic
    mass distribution. While the Betti numbers do not fully quantify topology, they
    extend the information beyond conventional cosmological studies of topology in
    terms of genus and Euler characteristic. The richer information content of Betti
    numbers goes along the availability of fast algorithms to compute them. For continuous
    density fields, we determine the scale-dependence of Betti numbers by invoking
    the cosmologically familiar filtration of sublevel or superlevel sets defined
    by density thresholds. For the discrete galaxy distribution, however, the analysis
    is based on the alpha shapes of the particles. These simplicial complexes constitute
    an ordered sequence of nested subsets of the Delaunay tessellation, a filtration
    defined by the scale parameter, α. As they are homotopy equivalent to the sublevel
    sets of the distance field, they are an excellent tool for assessing the topological
    structure of a discrete point distribution. In order to develop an intuitive understanding
    for the behavior of Betti numbers as a function of α, and their relation to the
    morphological patterns in the Cosmic Web, we first study them within the context
    of simple heuristic Voronoi clustering models. These can be tuned to consist of
    specific morphological elements of the Cosmic Web, i.e. clusters, filaments, or
    sheets. To elucidate the relative prominence of the various Betti numbers in different
    stages of morphological evolution, we introduce the concept of alpha tracks. Subsequently,
    we address the topology of structures emerging in the standard LCDM scenario and
    in cosmological scenarios with alternative dark energy content. The evolution
    of the Betti numbers is shown to reflect the hierarchical evolution of the Cosmic
    Web. We also demonstrate that the scale-dependence of the Betti numbers yields
    a promising measure of cosmological parameters, with a potential to help in determining
    the nature of dark energy and to probe primordial non-Gaussianities. We also discuss
    the expected Betti numbers as a function of the density threshold for superlevel
    sets of a Gaussian random field. Finally, we introduce the concept of persistent
    homology. It measures scale levels of the mass distribution and allows us to separate
    small from large scale features. Within the context of the hierarchical cosmic
    structure formation, persistence provides a natural formalism for a multiscale
    topology study of the Cosmic Web.

  text: 'We introduce TopoCut: a new way to integrate knowledge about topological
    properties (TPs) into random field image segmentation model. Instead of including
    TPs as additional constraints during minimization of the energy function, we devise
    an efficient algorithm for modifying the unary potentials such that the resulting
    segmentation is guaranteed with the desired properties. Our method is more flexible
    in the sense that it handles more topology constraints than previous methods,
    which were only able to enforce pairwise or global connectivity. In particular,
    our method is very fast, making it for the first time possible to enforce global
    topological properties in practical image segmentation tasks.'
