The minimum distance computation problem between two surfaces is very important in many applications such as robotics, CAD/CAM and computer graphics. Given two implicit algebraic ...
This paper introduces a fast continuous collision detection technique for polyhedral rigid bodies. As opposed to most collision detection techniques, the computation of the first ...
Abstract—We derive a simple general parametric representation of the rate–distortion function of a memoryless source, where both the rate and the distortion are given by integr...
The structure map turning a set into the carrier of a final coalgebra is not unique. This fact is well-known but commonly elided. In this paper we argue that any such concrete re...
We develop a computational model of shape that extends existing Riemannian models of shape of curves to multidimensional objects of general topological type. We construct shape sp...
