The prediction of collisions amongst N rigid objects may be reduced to a series of computations of the time to first contact for all pairs of objects. Simple enclosing bounds and...
This can be a costly operation. When the data is arranged according to its three-dimensional coordinates, calculating the contour surfaces requires examining each data cell. Avoidi...
We consider the problem of computing a representation of the plane graph induced by one (or more) algebraic curves in the real plane. We make no assumptions about the curves, in p...

Background: This paper introduces the notion of optimizing different norms in the dual problem of support vector machines with multiple kernels. The selection of norms yields diff...
