—Triangulated meshes have become ubiquitous discrete surface representations. In this paper, we address the problem of how to maintain the manifold properties of a surface while ...
A MAC protocol specifies how nodes in a sensor network access a shared communication channel. Desired properties of a MAC protocol are: it should be contention-free (avoid collisio...

The implicit framework of the level-set method has several advantages when tracking propagating fronts. Indeed, the evolving contour is embedded in a higher dimensional level-set f...
A novel mathematical framework inspired on Morse Theory for topological triangle characterization in 2D meshes is introduced that is useful for applications involving the creation...

The best known upper bound on the number of topological changes in the Delaunay triangulation of a set of moving points in R2 is (nearly) cubic, even if each point is moving with ...

Generalization of spatial databases consists of complicated operations including not only geometric transformations but also topological changes. The changes often result in an inc...
We present a novel framework to exert topology control over a level set evolution. Level set methods offer several advantages over parametric active contours, in particular automat...
Abstract—We study the problem of contour tracking with binary sensors, an important problem for monitoring spatial signals and tracking group targets. In particular, we track the...

Collision detection in geometrically complex scenes is crucial in physical simulations and real time applications. Works based on spatial hierarchical structures have been propose...
— We propose a routing and load-balancing approach with the primary goal of being robust to sudden topological changes and significant traffic matrix variations. The proposed m...
