We study a two-dimensional generalization of the classical Bin Packing problem, denoted as 2D Demand Bin Packing. In this context, each bin is a horizontal timeline, and rectangular tasks (representing electric appliances or computational…
We study the three-dimensional Knapsack (3DK) problem, in which we are given a set of axis-aligned cuboids with associated profits and an axis-aligned cube knapsack. The objective is to find a non-overlapping axis-aligned packing (by…
We introduce the notion of a "crystallographic sphere packing," defined to be one whose limit set is that of a geometrically finite hyperbolic reflection group in one higher dimension. We exhibit for the first time an infinite family of…
Packing problems are in general NP-hard, even for simple cases. Since now there are no highly efficient algorithms available for solving packing problems. The two-dimensional bin packing problem is about packing all given rectangular items,…
The morphological classification of galaxies is considered a relevant issue and can be approached from different points of view. The increasing growth in the size and accuracy of astronomical data sets brings with it the need for the use of…
The method, proposed in \cite{Za22} to derive the densest packing fraction of random disc and sphere packings, is shown to yield in two dimensions too high a value that (i) violates the very assumption underlying the method and (ii)…
The use of brain images as markers for diseases or behavioral differences is challenged by the small effects size and the ensuing lack of power, an issue that has incited researchers to rely more systematically on large cohorts. Coupled…
In this work we propose algorithms to explicitly construct a conservative estimate of the configuration spaces of rigid objects in 2D and 3D. Our approach is able to detect compact path components and narrow passages in configuration space…
In this paper we prove complex bounds, also referred to as a priori bounds, for real analytic (and even C3) interval maps. This means that we associate to such a map a complex box mapping (which provides a kind of Markov structure),…
This article presents a new high-order accurate algorithm for finding a particular solution to a linear, constant-coefficient partial differential equation (PDE) by means of a convolution of the volumetric source function with the Green's…
Recently, deep clustering, which is able to perform feature learning that favors clustering tasks via deep neural networks, has achieved remarkable performance in image clustering applications. However, the existing deep clustering…
We explore approximation algorithms for the $d$-dimensional geometric bin packing problem ($d$BP). Caprara (MOR 2008) gave a harmonic-based algorithm for $d$BP having an asymptotic approximation ratio (AAR) of $T_{\infty}^{d-1}$ (where…
We propose a new class of space-filling designs called rotated sphere packing designs for computer experiments. The approach starts from the asymptotically optimal positioning of identical balls that covers the unit cube. Properly scaled,…
Multidimensional imaging, capturing image data in more than two dimensions, has been an emerging field with diverse applications. Due to the limitation of two-dimensional detectors in obtaining the high-dimensional image data, computational…
Random sequential adsorption algorithm is a popular tool for modelling structure of monolayers built in irreversible adsorption experiments. However, this algorithm becomes very inefficient when the density of molecules in a layer rises.…
Motivated by the analysis of range queries in databases, we introduce the computation of the Depth Distribution of a set $\mathcal{B}$ of axis aligned boxes, whose computation generalizes that of the Klee's Measure and of the Maximum Depth.…
A steadily growing computational power is employed to perform molecular dynamics simulations of biological macromolecules, which represents at the same time an immense opportunity and a formidable challenge. In fact, large amounts of data…
Irreversible random sequential deposition of interacting particles is widely used to model aggregation phenomena in physical, chemical, and biophysical systems. We show that in one dimension the exact time dependent solution of such…
We resolve a longstanding open problem by reformulating the Grassmannian fusion frames to the case of mixed dimensions and show that this satisfies the proper properties for the problem. In order to compare elements of mixed dimension, we…
Bin covering is a dual version of classic bin packing. Thus, the goal is to cover as many bins as possible, where covering a bin means packing items of total size at least one in the bin. For online bin covering, competitive analysis fails…
