Hyperbolic "Smoothing" of Shapes
We have been developing a theory of generic 2-D shape based on a reaction-diffusion model from mathematical physics. The description of a shape is derived from the singularities o...

Intuitive Control of a Planar Bipedal Walking Robot
Bipedal robots are di cult to analyze mathematically. However, successful control strategies can be discovered using simple physical intuition and can be described in simple terms...

In Defense of Pseudorandom Sample Selection
Generation of random numbers is a critical component of existing post-election auditing techniques. Recent work has largely discouraged the use of all pseudorandom number generato...

Timing-driven placement by grid-warping
Grid-warping is a recent placement strategy based on a novel physical analogy: rather than move the gates to optimize their location, it elastically deforms a model of the 2-D chi...
