It is well-known that live multimedia streaming applications operate more efficiently when organized in peer-to-peer (P2P) topologies, since peer upload capacities are utilized t...
—The Reeb graph of a scalar function represents the evolution of the topology of its level sets. This paper describes a near-optimal output-sensitive algorithm for computing the ...
* The surface-matching problem is investigated in this paper using a mathematical tool called harmonic maps. The theory of harmonic maps studies the mapping between different metri...
We present a framework for categorical shape recognition. The coarse shape of an object is captured by a multiscale blob decomposition, representing the compact and elongated part...
