Qualitative polyline similarity testing with applications to query-by-sketch, indexing and classification
We present an algorithm for polyline (and polygon) similarity testing that is based on the double-cross formalism. To determine the degree of similarity between two polylines, the...

Equivalence of local treewidth and linear local treewidth and its algorithmic applications
We solve an open problem posed by Eppstein in 1995 [14, 15] and re-enforced by Grohe [16, 17] concerning locally bounded treewidth in minor-closed families of graphs. A graph has ...
