Computing push plans for disk-shaped robots
Suppose we want to move a passive object along a given path, among obstacles in the plane, by pushing it with an active robot. We present two algorithms to compute a push plan for...

Novel metaheuristic for parameter estimation in nonlinear dynamic biological systems
Background: We consider the problem of parameter estimation (model calibration) in nonlinear dynamic models of biological systems. Due to the frequent ill-conditioning and multi-m...

Beta-skeletons have unbounded dilation
A fractal construction shows that, for any > 0, the -skeleton of a point set can have arbitrarily large dilation: (nc ), where c is a constant depending on and going to zero ...
