Semiring induced valuation algebras: Exact and approximate local computation algorithms
Local computation in join trees or acyclic hypertrees has been shown to be linked to a particular algebraic structure, called valuation algebra. There are many models of this alge...

Algebraic Splats Representation for Point Based Models
The primitives of point-based representations are independent but are rendered using surfels, which approximate the immediate neighborhood of each point linearly. A large number o...

A Subdivision Approach to Planar Semi-algebraic Sets
Abstract. Semi-algebraic sets occur naturally when dealing with implicit models and boolean operations between them. In this work we present an algorithm to efficiently and in a ce...

Monte-Carlo Sampling for NP-Hard Maximization Problems in the Framework of Weighted Parsing
Abstract. The purpose of this paper is (1) to provide a theoretical justification for the use of Monte-Carlo sampling for approximate resolution of NP-hard maximization problems in...
