报告摘要：Numerous problems in computer vision and machine learning are inherently discrete. More often, these lead to challenging optimization problems. While convexity is an important property when solving continuous optimization problems, submodularity, often viewed as a discrete analog of convexity, is key to solving many discrete problems. Its characterizing property, diminishing marginal returns, appears naturally in a multitude of settings. Submodularity has long been recognized in combinatorial optimization and game theory, it has seen a recent surge of interest in computer vision, document summarization and video summarization. In this talk, we introduce some of our recent work on submodular functions optimization and its applications on image segmentation and video summarization.
