Multi-Phase Relaxation Labeling for Square Jigsaw Puzzle Solving
We present a novel method for solving square jigsaw puzzles based on global optimization. The method is fully automatic, assumes no prior information, and can handle puzzles with known or unknown piece orientation. At the core of the optimization process is nonlinear relaxation labeling, a well-founded approach for deducing global solutions from local constraints, but unlike the classical scheme here we propose a multi-phase approach that guarantees convergence to feasible puzzle solutions. Next to the algorithmic novelty, we also present a new compatibility function for the quantification of the affinity between adjacent puzzle pieces. Competitive results and the advantage of the multi-phase approach are demonstrated on standard datasets.

Relaxation Labeling Meets GANs: Solving Jigsaw Puzzles with Missing Borders
This paper proposes JiGAN, a GAN-based method for solving Jigsaw puzzles with eroded or missing borders. Missing borders is a common real-world situation, for example, when dealing with the reconstruction of broken artif…
Solving Multiple Square Jigsaw Puzzles With Missing Pieces
Jigsaw-puzzle solving is necessary in many applications, including biology, archaeology, and every-day life. In this paper we consider the square jigsaw puzzle problem, where the goal is to reconstruct the image from a s…
Solving Jigsaw Puzzles in the Wild: Human-Guided Reconstruction of Cultural Heritage Fragments
Reassembling real-world archaeological artifacts from fragmented pieces poses significant challenges due to erosion, missing regions, irregular shapes, and large-scale ambiguity. Traditional jigsaw puzzle solvers, often …
Solving Jigsaw Puzzles with Linear Programming
We propose a novel Linear Program (LP) based formula- tion for solving jigsaw puzzles. We formulate jigsaw solving as a set of successive global convex relaxations of the stan- dard NP-hard formulation, that can describe…
