Zigzag persistent homology and real-valued functions
We study the problem of computing zigzag persistence of a sequence of homology groups and study a particular sequence derived from the levelsets of a real-valued function on a top...

Real-coded ECGA for economic dispatch
In this paper, we propose a new approach that consists of the extended compact genetic algorithm (ECGA) and split-ondemand (SoD), an adaptive discretization technique, to economic...

Adding one edge to planar graphs makes crossing number hard
A graph is near-planar if it can be obtained from a planar graph by adding an edge. We show that it is NP-hard to compute the crossing number of near-planar graphs. The main idea ...

Output-sensitive algorithm for the edge-width of an embedded graph
Let G be an unweighted graph of complexity n cellularly embedded in a surface (orientable or not) of genus g. We describe improved algorithms to compute (the length of) a shortest...

Improving Difference Operators by Local Feature Detection
Differential operators are required to compute several characteristics for continuous surfaces, as e.g. tangents, curvature, flatness, shape descriptors. We propose to replace diff...
