Getting Prime Cuts from Skylines over Partially Ordered Domains

Skyline queries have recently received a lot of attention due to their intuitive query formulation: users can state preferences with respect to several attributes. Unlike numerical preferences, preferences over discrete value domains do not show an inherent total order, but have to rely on partial orders as stated by the user. In such orders typically many object values are incomparable, increa...

Type Two Cuts, Bad Cuts and Very Bad Cuts

Type two cuts, bad cuts and very bad cuts are introduced in [KL] for studying the relationship between Loeb measure and U-topology of a hyper nite time line in an !1-saturated nonstandard universe. The questions concerning the existence of those cuts are asked there. In this paper we answer, fully or partially, some of those questions by showing that: (1) type-two cuts exist, (2) the @1-isomorp...

Communal Cuts: sharing cuts across images

Identifying objects that are common to a set of images is an important step in unsupervised image analysis. While existing approaches to object extraction and co-segmentation commonly focus merely on joint per-class appearance models, we propose a model that incorporates additional label and boundary co-occurrence information with little additional communication across images. This model admits...
