Oriented bounding surfaces with at most six common normals
— We present a new type of oriented bounding surfaces, which is particularly well suited for shortest distance computations. The bounding surfaces are obtained by considering sur...

The smallest enclosing ball of balls: combinatorial structure and algorithms
We develop algorithms for computing the smallest enclosing ball of a set of n balls in d-dimensional space. Unlike previous methods, we explicitly address small cases (n ≤ d + 1...

A resource-bounded agent addresses the newcomb problem
In the Newcomb problem, the standard arguments for taking either one box or both boxes adduce what seem to be relevant considerations, but they are not complete arguments, and att...

Trimming local and global self-intersections in offset curves/surfaces using distance maps
A robust and efficient algorithm for trimming both local and global self-intersections in offset curves and surfaces is presented. Our scheme is based on the derivation of a ratio...

Sketch-Based Procedural Surface Modeling and Compositing Using Surface Trees
We present a system for creating and manipulating layered procedural surface editing operations, which is motivated by the limited support for iterative design in free-form modeli...
