Line drawing, leap years, and Euclid
Bresenham's algorithm minimizes error in drawing lines on integer grid points; leap year calculations, surprisingly, are a generalization. We compare the two calculations, exp...

Hamilton-Jacobi Skeletons
In an effort to articulate models for the intuitive representation and manipulation of 2D and 3D forms, Blum (1967, 1973) invented the notion of a skeleton. His insight was to con...
