We consider the global optimization problem for d-variate Lipschitz functions which, in a certain sense, do not increase too slowly in a neighborhood of the global minimizer(s). O...
This paper considers highly ill-posed surface recovery inverse problems, where the sought surface in 2D or 3D is piecewise constant with several possible level values. These level...
We consider several private database query problems. The starting point of this work is the element rank problem: the server holds a database of n integers, and the user an integer...
— We present a new approach to path planning for flexible wires. We introduce a method for computing stable configurations of a wire subject to manipulation constraints. These ...
This paper proposes an abstract and generic topological model that captures the essence of P2P architecture. Such model should in return facilitate the exploitation of the new desi...
