Root comparison techniques applied to computing the additively weighted Voronoi diagram
This work examines algebraic techniques for comparing quadratic algebraic numbers, thus yielding methods for deciding key predicates in various geometric constructions. Our motiva...

Edge Sensitive Variational Image Thresholding
In this paper we propose a locally adaptive image threshold technique via variational energy minimization. The novelty of the proposed method is that from an image it automaticall...

Geometric optimization and sums of algebraic functions
We present a new optimization technique that yields the first FPTAS for several geometric problems. These problems reduce to optimizing a sum of non-negative, constant description...

Combinatorial Surface Integration
Graph-Spectral surface integration techniques construct an integration path assuming that the surface contains a path along which the integration error is minimal. This paper pres...
