A formal analysis of so-called diffusion algorithms is performed. They are frequently used in structural recognition but are rather poorly theoretically studied. These algorithms are analyzed from the viewpoint of their ability to optimize a function of many discrete variables, which is represented as the sum of many terms each of which depends on only two variables. It is proved that, under some stop condition, a diffusion algorithm approximately solves certain subclasses of optimization problems with any predefined nonzero error. The totality of problems solved by diffusion algorithms includes all so-called acyclic and supermodular optimization problems and also some other problems for which solution algorithms are unknown.
