Moving Least Squares Coordinates
We propose a new family of barycentric coordinates that have closed-forms for arbitrary 2D polygons. These coordinates are easy to compute and have linear precision even for open ...

Slim-Trees: High Performance Metric Trees Minimizing Overlap Between Nodes
In this paper we present the Slim-tree, a dynamic tree for organizing metric datasets in pages of fixed size. The Slim-tree uses the "fat-factor" which provides a simple ...
