12 Pseudo Boolean Functions (PBF) Variables: x, x,..., 0, x n Negations: 0, xi x i Pseudo-Boolean Functions (PBF): :{0,} n» Maps a Boolean vector to a real number. R Has unique multi-linear representation:» For example: ( x, x, x, x ) 3x x x x x [Boros&Hammer 00]

13 Posiorms or Pseudo-Boolean unctions (PBF) Posiorms: Non-negative multi-linear polynomial except maybe the constant terms. ( x x x x, x, x3, x4) 3xx4 5 3( x ) x x x x 4 5 3x 3x x x 4 4 5xx 3 x4) 3xx4 5xx x4 3xx4 5xx 3 3( x 3 x Several posiorms exist or a given unction. Provides bounds or minimization, e.g [Boros&Hammer 00] 3

14 Set Functions are Pseudo Boolean Functions (PBF) Finite ground set V {,,..., n} Set unction (Input - subset o, output - real number) s : V V R - correspondence exists between and subset V S {,,3,4} o V. { x, x, x3 0, x4 } x (,,4), x,..., x n x x i i 0 0, i i S S

V {,}, A {}, B {} (0,0) (0,) Using submodularity, we have: ( x ( x, x, x 0) ) ( x ( x ) 0) (,0) (0,) (,) (0,0) 0, x 0, x (,0) (, ) Main diagonal elements are smaller than o-diagonal ones. Blue is larger than red.

34 Network model or submodular QPBF A submodular QPBF can be associated with a network. There is - correspondence every edge in network and every term in. Let us denote source by s 0 and sink by t. x An edge that goes rom to x is denoted by x x. G v x x s x x x sx x t x t

35 Network model or submodular QPBF x x x x s x sx x x x xt t Given a QPBF we rewrite it using a posiorm representation using only three types o terms: x, x,, i x j i x i 3x x x x 4 3x x ( 4xx 4x 4x) 3x x 4( x ) x x 4 3 s 3x 3x x x 4 x 4 x 3x ( 3x 3 3) x x 4 3 3x 3( x ) x x 4 3 3sx x x 3xt 4 t 3

36 Network model or submodular QPBF There is a one-one correspondence between values o and s-t cut values o [Hammer 965] x G v. s 3 sx 4 x x 3 x t t x ( x C({ x 0, x, x }) ) 4 s-t mincut [Ford&Fulkerson 6, Goldberg&Tarzan86]

37 Network model or submodular QPBF There is a one-one correspondence between values o and s-t cut values o [Hammer 965]. s 3 4 G v x 3 x Thus we can compute the minimum o algorithm on the associated G v. t ( x C({ x, x, s},{ x using maxlow/mincut 0), t}) s-t mincut [Ford&Fulkerson 6, Goldberg&Tarzan86]

38 Network model or non-submodular QPBF A non-submodular QBPF can be associated with a network as ollows: 3x x 4x x x G v s x 3x 3sx 5x 5sx 4( x 4x x ) x t There is no polynomial-time algorithm or s-t mincut on a network with negative edge capacities. A submodular QBPF can always be associated with a network with non-negative edge capacities.

39 Minimizing Quadratic Pseudo Boolean Functions I QPBF is submodular, use maxlow algo.. [Ford&Fulkerson 6, Goldberg&Tarzan86] I QPBF is non-submodular, Belie propagation or other message passing algorithms. [Boros&Hammer 00]

40 Multi-label Problems Choose the disparities rom the discrete set: (,,..., L)

41 Multi-label Problems Exact Methods: Transorm the given multi-label problems to Boolean problems and solve them using maxlow/mincut algorithms or QPBO techniques. [Not covered in this course!] Approximate Methods: Develop iterative move-making algorithms where each move corresponds to a Boolean problem.

48 Expansion Let yi and y j be two adjacent variables whose labels are not. retain y i l a y j retain lb In the move space, we compute i the two variables should retain the same labels or move to label. [Boykov et al. 00]

49 Expansion In the move space, we use two Boolean variables iand jto denote and y respectively. The encoding is shown below: y i y y i i ll a i j x i 0 x y x i Submodularity condition states that the sum o main diagonal elements is less than or equal to the sum o elements in the odiagonal: y j j ll j a x j j 0 x x 00 x i x j 0 x i x j 0 x i x j x i x j = l y a i i l y b lb y y j j a l y y i y i y j j [Boykov et al. 00]

50 Submodularity condition states that the sum o main diagonal elements is less than the sum o elements in the o-diagonal:
