Improved Bounds for Wireless Localization
We consider a novel class of art gallery problems inspired by wireless localization. Given a simple polygon P, place and orient guards each of which broadcasts a unique key within ...

Curve Shortening and the Rendezvous Problem for Mobile Autonomous Robots
If a smooth, closed, and embedded curve is deformed along its normal vector field at a rate proportional to its curvature, it shrinks to a circular point. This curve evolution is ...

Measuring Linearity of Ordered Point Sets
It is often practical to measure how linear a certain ordered set of points is. We are interested in linearity measures which are invariant to rotation, scaling, and translation. T...
