On the Extraction of Curve Skeletons using Gradient Vector Flow
In this paper, we propose a new variational framework for computing continuous curve skeletons from discrete objects that are suitable for structural shape representation. We have...

Maximizing Non-Linear Concave Functions in Fixed Dimension
Consider a convex set P in IRd and a piecewise polynomial concave function F: P IR. Let A be an algorithm that given a point x IRd computes F(x) if x P, or returns a concave po...
