Drawing Area-Proportional Venn and Euler Diagrams
We consider the problem of drawing Venn diagrams for which each region’s area is proportional to some weight (e.g., population or percentage) assigned to that region. These area-...

Extrapolation methods for approximating arc length and surface area
A well-known method of estimating the length of a parametric curve in Rd is to sample some points from it and compute the length of the polygon passing through them. In this paper...
