The face mask is an essential sanitaryware in daily lives growing during the pandemic period and is a big threat to current face recognition systems. The masks destroy a lot of details in a large area of face, and it makes it difficult to…
Face anti-spoofing algorithms play a pivotal role in the robust deployment of face recognition systems against presentation attacks. Conventionally, full facial images are required by such systems to correctly authenticate individuals, but…
We prove that every three-dimensional polyhedron is uniquely determined by its dihedral angles and edge lengths, even if nonconvex or self-intersecting, under two plausible sufficient conditions: (i) the polyhedron has only convex faces and…
Skeletal polyhedra are discrete structures made up of finite, flat or skew, or infinite, helical or zigzag, polygons as faces, with two faces on each edge and a circular vertex-figure at each vertex. When a variant of Wythoff's construction…
A facial parity edge coloring of a 2-edge connected plane graph is an edge coloring where no two consecutive edges of a facial walk of any face receive the same color. Additionally, for every face f and every color c either no edge or an…
Face detection and recognition benchmarks have shifted toward more difficult environments. The challenge presented in this paper addresses the next step in the direction of automatic detection and identification of people from outdoor…
Suppose that a polygon $P$ is given as an array containing the vertices in counterclockwise order. We analyze how many vertices (including the index of each of these vertices) we need to know before we can bound $P$, i.e., report a bounded…
The problem of searching a polygonal region for an unpredictably moving intruder by a set of stationary guards, each carrying an orientable laser, is known as the Searchlight Scheduling Problem. Determining the computational complexity of…
Compact polyhedra of cubic point symmetry Oh, exhibit surfaces of planar sections (facets) characterized by normal vector families {abc} with up to 48 members each, compatible with Oh symmetry. We focus first on polyhedra confined by facets…
We develop a theory for the existence of perfect matchings in hypergraphs under quite general conditions. Informally speaking, the obstructions to perfect matchings are geometric, and are of two distinct types: 'space barriers' from convex…
A facial-parity edge-coloring of a $2$-edge-connected plane graph is a facially-proper edge-coloring in which every face is incident with zero or an odd number of edges of each color. A facial-parity vertex-coloring of a $2$-connected plane…
We provide an O(log log OPT)-approximation algorithm for the problem of guarding a simple polygon with guards on the perimeter. We first design a polynomial-time algorithm for building epsilon-nets of size O(1/epsilon log log 1/epsilon) for…
We prove that Dirichlet stereohedra for non-cubic crystallographic groups in dimension 3 cannot have more than 80 facets. The bound depends on the particular crystallographic group considered and is above 50 only on 9 of the 97 affine…
A facial unique-maximum coloring of a plane graph is a vertex coloring where on each face $\alpha$ the maximal color appears exactly once on the vertices of $\alpha$. If the coloring is required to be proper, then the upper bound for the…
This paper discusses a distance guarding concept on triangulation graphs, which can be associated with distance domination and distance vertex cover. We show how these subjects are interconnected and provide tight bounds for any n-vertex…
Recently, a natural variant of the Art Gallery problem, known as the \emph{Contiguous Art Gallery problem} was proposed. Given a simple polygon $P$, the goal is to partition its boundary $\partial P$ into the smallest number of contiguous…
This paper investigates the rigidity of bordered polyhedral surfaces. Using the variational principle, we show that bordered polyhedral surfaces are determined by boundary value and discrete curvatures on the interior edges. As a corollary,…
Motivated by secure wireless networking, we consider the problem of placing fixed localizers that enable mobile communication devices to prove they belong to a secure region that is defined by the interior of a polygon. Each localizer views…
Answering a question posed by Joseph Malkevitch, we prove that there exists a polyhedral graph, with triangular faces, such that every realization of it as the graph of a convex polyhedron includes at least one face that is a scalene…
A spectrahedron is the feasible set of a semidefinite program, SDP, i.e., the intersection of an affine set with the positive semidefinite cone. While strict feasibility is a generic property for random problems, there are many classes of…
