Solving the minimum labelling spanning tree problem using hybrid local search [PDF]
Given a connected, undirected graph whose edges are labelled (or coloured), the minimum labelling spanning tree (MLST) problem seeks a spanning tree whose edges have the smallest number of distinct labels (or colours).

Alternating Learning Approach for Variational Networks and Undersampling Pattern in Parallel MRI Applications [PDF]
Purpose: To propose an alternating learning approach to learn the sampling pattern (SP) and the parameters of variational networks (VN) in accelerated parallel magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Methods: The approach alternates between improving the SP, using bias-accelerated subset selection, and improving parameters of the VN, using ADAM with ...
