Summary :

In [5], the following pyramid construction problem was proposed: Given nonnegative valued functions ρ and µ in d variables, we consider the optimal pyramid maximizing the total parametric gain of ρ against µ. The pyramid can be considered as the optimal unimodal approximation of ρ relative to µ, and can be applied to hierarchical data segmentation. In this paper, we give efficient algorithms for a couple of two-dimensional pyramid construction problems.
