A Closest Point Algorithm for Parametric Surfaces with Global Uniform Asymptotic Stability
— We present an algorithm that determines the point on a convex parametric surface patch that is closest to a given (possibly moving) point. Any initial point belonging to the su...

A Quasi-Monte Carlo Method for Integration with Improved Convergence
Abstract. Quasi-Monte Carlo methods are based on the idea that random Monte Carlo techniques can often be improved by replacing the underlying source of random numbers with a more ...
