Graph Neural Networks with Triangle-Based Messages for the Multicut Problem

The multicut problem is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem with diverse applications in fields such as bioinformatics, data mining and computer vision. Graph neural networks have been defined for the multicut problem but can be adapted further to its specific objective function and constraints. In this article, we introduce such an adapted graph neural network architecture in which features are assigned only to edges, and the computation of messages is based on triangles in the underlying graph. Experiments with synthetic and real-world instances with up to 200 nodes show that our method outperforms state-of-the-art heuristic solvers in terms of solution quality while maintaining feasible runtimes. For some instances, our method finds optimal solutions in seconds whereas exact solvers need hours to find and certify optimal solutions.

A Polyhedral Study of Lifted Multicuts

Fundamental to many applications in data analysis are the decompositions of a graph, i.e. partitions of the node set into component-inducing subsets. One way of encoding decompositions is by multicuts, the subsets of those edges that straddle distinct components. Recently, a lifting of multicuts from a graph $G = (V, E)$ to an augmented graph $\hat G = (V, E \cup F)$ has been proposed in the field of image analysis, with the goal of obtaining a more expressive characterization of graph decompositions in which it is made explicit also for pairs $F \subseteq \tbinom{V}{2} \setminus E$ of non-neighboring nodes whether these are in the same or distinct components. In this work, we study in detail the polytope in $\mathbb{R}^{E \cup F}$ whose vertices are precisely the characteristic vectors of multicuts of $\hat G$ lifted from $G$, connecting it, in particular, to the rich body of prior work on the clique partitioning and multilinear polytope.

The Stochastic Bilevel Continuous Knapsack Problem with Uncertain Follower's Objective

We consider a bilevel continuous knapsack problem where the leader controls the capacity of the knapsack, while the follower chooses a feasible packing maximizing his own profit. The leader's aim is to optimize a linear objective function in the capacity and in the follower's solution, but with respect to different item values. We address a stochastic version of this problem where the follower's profits are uncertain from the leader's perspective, and only a probability distribution is known. Assuming that the leader aims at optimizing the expected value of her objective function, we first observe that the stochastic problem is tractable as long as the possible scenarios are given explicitly as part of the input, which also allows to deal with general distributions using a sample average approximation. For the case of independently and uniformly distributed item values, we show that the problem is #P-hard in general, and the same is true even for evaluating the leader's objective function. Nevertheless, we present pseudo-polynomial time algorithms for this case, running in time linear in the total size of the items. Based on this, we derive an additive approximation scheme for the general case of independently distributed item values, which runs in pseudo-polynomial time.
