We use the Laplacian and power method to compute Betti numbers of simplicial complexes. This has a number of advantages over other methods, both in theory and in practice. It requ...
Abstract. We propose a number of techniques for learning a global ranking from data that may be incomplete and imbalanced -- characteristics that are almost universal to modern dat...

We optimize over the set of corrected laplacians (CL) associated with a weighted graph to improve the average case normalized cut (NCut) of a graph. Unlike edge-relaxation SDPs, o...
Sparse Low-degree IMplicit (SLIM) surface [11] is a recently developed non-conforming surface representation. In this paper, a method for free-form deformation of SLIM surfaces is...
