Image Signature: Highlighting Sparse Salient Regions
—We introduce a simple image descriptor referred to as the image signature. We show, within the theoretical framework of sparse signal mixing, that this quantity spatially approx...

On the geometry of graphs with a forbidden minor
We study the topological simplification of graphs via random embeddings, leading ultimately to a reduction of the Gupta-Newman-Rabinovich-Sinclair (GNRS) L1 embedding conjecture t...

Generating strictly non-self-overlapping structured quadrilateral grids
In this paper, we present a BPM (Bézier Patch Mapping) algorithm which generates a strictly non-self-overlapping structured quadrilateral grid in a given four-sided planar region...
