要旨:
We propose a dual decomposition and linear program relaxation of the NP -hard
minimum cost multicut problem. Unlike other polyhedral relaxations of the
multicut polytope, it is amenable to efficient optimization by message passing.
Like other polyhedral elaxations, it can be tightened efficiently by cutting
planes. We define an algorithm that alternates between message passing and
efficient separation of cycle- and odd-wheel inequalities. This algorithm is
more efficient than state-of-the-art algorithms based on linear programming,
including algorithms written in the framework of leading commercial software,
as we show in experiments with large instances of the problem from applications
in computer vision, biomedical image analysis and data mining.
