High resolution surface reconstruction from overlapping multiple-views
Extracting a computer model of a real scene from a sequence of views, is one of the most challenging and fundamental problems in computer vision. Stereo vision algorithms allow us...

Zigzag persistent homology and real-valued functions
We study the problem of computing zigzag persistence of a sequence of homology groups and study a particular sequence derived from the levelsets of a real-valued function on a top...

An improved bound on the number of unit area triangles
We show that the number of unit-area triangles determined by a set of n points in the plane is O(n9/4+ε), for any ε > 0, improving the recent bound O(n44/19) of Dumitrescu et...

Incremental construction of the delaunay triangulation and the delaunay graph in medium dimension
We describe a new implementation of the well-known incremental algorithm for constructing Delaunay triangulations in any dimension. Our implementation follows the exact computing ...

Persistent cohomology and circular coordinates
Nonlinear dimensionality reduction (NLDR) algorithms such as Isomap, LLE and Laplacian Eigenmaps address the problem of representing high-dimensional nonlinear data in terms of lo...

Randomly removing g handles at once
It was shown in [11] that any orientable graph of genus g can be probabilistically embedded into a graph of genus g − 1 with constant distortion. Removing handles one by one giv...

On the topology of planar algebraic curves
We revisit the problem of computing the topology and geometry of a real algebraic plane curve. The topology is of prime interest but geometric information, such as the position of...

PTAS for geometric hitting set problems via local search
We consider the problem of computing minimum geometric hitting sets in which, given a set of geometric objects and a set of points, the goal is to compute the smallest subset of p...
