Minimum-Length Polygons of First-Class Simple Cube-Curves
We consider simple cube-curves in the orthogonal 3D grid. The union of all cells contained in such a curve (also called the tube of this curve) is a polyhedrally bounded set. The c...

Fast Molecular Shape Matching Using Contact Maps
In this paper, we study the problem of computing the similarity of two protein structures ring their contact-map overlap. Contact-map overlap abstracts the problem of computing th...

A General Theory for Positioning and Orienting 2D Polygonal or Curved Parts using Intelligent Motion Surfaces
: In this paper we present novel algorithms to compute quasi-static and dynamic equilibrium positions and orientations (if any) of 2D polygonal or curved parts placed on general sh...

On Approximating an Implicit Cover Problem in Biology
Abstract. In an implicit combinatorial optimization problem, the constraints are not enumerated explicitly but rather stated implicitly through equations, other constraints or auxi...

Separation and Approximation of Polyhedral Objects
Given a family of disjoint polygons P1, P2, : : :, Pk in the plane, and an integer parameter m, it is NP-complete to decide if the Pi's can be pairwise separated by a polygon...
