We present a real-time algorithm that finds the Penetration Depth (PD) between general polygonal models based on iterative and local optimization techniques. Given an in-collision configuration of an object in configuration space, we find…
A general question behind this paper is to explore a good notion for intrinsic curvature in the framework of noncommutative geometry started by Alain Connes in the 80s. It has only recently begun (2014) to be comprehended via the intensive…
Pulgon-tools is an open-source software package providing building blocks for the analysis and modeling of quasi-one-dimensional (quasi-1D) periodic systems based on line-group theory. While mature libraries exist for space-group detection…
Panoramic Annular Lens (PAL) composed of few lenses has great potential in panoramic surrounding sensing tasks for mobile and wearable devices because of its tiny size and large Field of View (FoV). However, the image quality of tiny-volume…
We present the open-source image processing software package PySAP (Python Sparse data Analysis Package) developed for the COmpressed Sensing for Magnetic resonance Imaging and Cosmology (COSMIC) project. This package provides a set of…
The point inclusion tests for polygons, in other words the point-in-polygon (PIP) algorithms, are fundamental tools for many scientific fields related to computational geometry, and they have been studied for a long time. The PIP algorithms…
We present the $\textit{NumericalImplicitization}$ package for $\textit{Macaulay2}$, which allows for user-friendly computation of the invariants of the image of a polynomial map, such as dimension, degree, and Hilbert function values. This…
Let $A$ and $B$ be rings, $U$ a $(B,A)$-bimodule and $T=\begin{pmatrix} A&0\\U&B \end{pmatrix}$ the triangular matrix ring. In this paper, several notions in relative Gorenstein algebra over a triangular matrix ring are investigated. We…

Multiplexed imaging data are revolutionizing our understanding of the composition and organization of tissues and tumors. A critical aspect of such tissue profiling is quantifying the spatial relationship relationships among cells at…
We make several new contributions to the study of proper holomorphic mappings between balls. Our results include a degree estimate for rational proper maps, a new gap phenomenon for convex families of arbitrary proper maps, and an…
We describe a newly-developed, free, browser-based application, for the interactive exploration of the dynamic geometry of Poncelet families of triangles. The main focus is on responsive display of the beauteous loci of centers of such…
Moduli of rings and quadrilaterals are frequently applied in geometric function theory, see e.g. the Handbook by K\"uhnau. Yet their exact values are known only in a few special cases. Previously, the class of planar domains with polygonal…
Accurate and robust polyp segmentation is essential for early colorectal cancer detection and for computer-aided diagnosis. While convolutional neural network-, Transformer-, and Mamba-based U-Net variants have achieved strong performance,…
Toric geometry provides a bridge between algebraic geometry and combinatorics of fans and polytopes. For each polarized toric variety (X,L) we have associated a polytope P. In this thesis we use this correspondence to study birational…
