Given a polygon $P$, for two points $s$ and $t$ contained in the polygon, their \emph{geodesic distance} is the length of the shortest $st$-path within $P$. A \emph{geodesic disk} of radius $r$ centered at a point $v \in P$ is the set of…

We report on the implementation of an algorithm for computing the set of all regular triangulations of finitely many points in Euclidean space. This algorithm, which we call down-flip reverse search, can be restricted, e.g., to computing…
We characterize the solution of a broad class of convex optimization problems that address the reconstruction of a function from a finite number of linear measurements. The underlying hypothesis is that the solution is decomposable as a…
In many applications of X-ray computed tomography, an unsupervised segmentation of the reconstructed 3D volumes forms an important step in the image processing chain for further investigation of the digitized object. Therefore, the goal is…
Gaussian mixture model is very useful in many practical problems. Nevertheless, it cannot be directly generalized to non Euclidean spaces. To overcome this problem we present a spherical Gaussian-based clustering approach for partitioning…
This work introduces a novel Trefftz Continuous Galerkin (TCG) method for 2D Helmholtz problems based on evanescent plane waves (EPWs). We construct a new globally-conforming discrete space, departing from standard discontinuous Trefftz…
The covering radius is a fundamental property of linear codes that characterizes the trade-off between storage and access in linear data-query protocols. The generalized covering radius was recently defined by Elimelech and Schwartz for…
Given $n$ points in a $d$ dimensional Euclidean space, the Minimum Enclosing Ball (MEB) problem is to find the ball with the smallest radius which contains all $n$ points. We give a $O(nd\Qcal/\sqrt{\epsilon})$ approximation algorithm for…
In this paper we study a generalized version of the Weber problem of finding a point that minimizes the sum of its distances to a finite number of given points. In our setting these distances may be $cut$ $off$ at a given value $C > 0$, and…

Fitting a data set with a parametrized model can be seen geometrically as finding the global minimum of the chi^2 hypersurface, depending on a set of parameters {P_i}. This is usually done using the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. The main…
