Estimating Entropy and Entropy Norm on Data Streams
We consider the problem of computing information theoretic functions such as entropy on a data stream, using sublinear space. Our first result deals with a measure we call the &quo...

Wave-Block in Excitable Media Due to Regions of Depressed Excitability
We study propagation failure using the one-dimensional scalar bistable equation with a passive "gap" region. By applying comparison principles for this type of equation, ...

A Mathematical Model for the Control and Eradication of a Wood Boring Beetle Infestation
We propose a mathematical model for an infestation of a wooded area by a beetle species in which the larvae develop deep in the wood of living trees. Due to the difficulties of det...

Shape Analysis of Planar Objects with Arbitrary Topologies using Conformal Geometry
The study of 2D shapes is a central problem in the field of computer vision. In 2D shape analysis, classification and recognition of objects from their observed silhouette are e...
