Soft body locomotion
We present a physically-based system to simulate and control the locomotion of soft body characters without skeletons. We use the finite element method to simulate the deformatio...

A Randomized Cutting Plane Method with Probabilistic Geometric Convergence
Abstract. We propose a randomized method for general convex optimization problems; namely, the minimization of a linear function over a convex body. The idea is to generate N rando...

Planar Image Based Visual Servoing as a Navigation Problem
We describe a hybrid planar image-based servo algorithm which, for a simplified planar convex rigid body, converges to a static goal for all initial conditions within the workspac...

Convex Source Support and Its Application to Electric Impedance Tomography
The aim in electric impedance tomography is to recover the conductivity inside a physical body from boundary measurements of current and voltage. In many situations of practical im...

An Inscribing Model for Random Polytopes
For convex bodies K with C2 boundary in Rd, we explore random polytopes with vertices chosen along the boundary of K. In particular, we determine asymptotic properties of the volum...
