Abstract— We consider the problem of approximating a continuous curve by a piecewise linear one whose segments are assumed to be connected by universal joints. Rather than taking...
— This paper addresses the problem of efficiently computing robot navigation functions. Navigation functions are potential functions free of spurious local minima that present a...

Segmentation of medical images is an important first step in the analysis of medical images. A lot of research has been performed on the segmentation of complex CT/MR images using...
I describe here a real-time vision-based gesture recognition system used in interactive computer music performances. The performer moves his hands in a video-camera capture area, t...
A local cell quality metric is introduced and used to construct a variational functional for a grid smoothing algorithm. A maximum principle is proved and the properties of the loc...
