In this paper, we describe and visualize the densest ball and horoball packing configurations belonging to the simply truncated $3$-dimensional hyperbolic Coxeter orthoschemes with parallel faces. These beautiful packing arrangements…
Multiple clustering aims at discovering diverse ways of organizing data into clusters. Despite the progress made, it's still a challenge for users to analyze and understand the distinctive structure of each output clustering. To ease this…
We design new parallel algorithms for clustering in high-dimensional Euclidean spaces. These algorithms run in the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model, and are fully scalable, meaning that the local memory in each machine may be…
We develop the theory of coregular sequences and codepth for modules that need not be finitely generated or artinian over a Noetherian ring. We use this theory to give a new version of a theorem of Hellus characterizing set-theoretic…
This work investigates dense packings of congruent hard infinitesimally--thin circular arcs in the two-dimensional Euclidean space. It focuses on those denotable as major whose subtended angle $\theta \in \left ( \pi, 2\pi \right ]$.…
We explore the structure of the space of quasisymmetric configurations identifying them by their magnetic axes, described as 3D closed curves. We demonstrate that this topological perspective divides the space of all configurations into…
Hypo-elastoplasticity is a flexible framework for modeling the mechanics of many hard materials under small elastic deformation and large plastic deformation. Under typical loading rates, most laboratory tests of these materials happen in…
A common representation of a three dimensional object in computer applications, such as graphics and design, is in the form of a triangular mesh. In many instances, individual or groups of triangles in such representation need to satisfy…
Context. An automatic tool to derive structural parameters of semi-resolved star clusters located in crowded stellar fields in nearby galaxies is needed for homogeneous processing of archival frames. Aims. We have developed a program that…
Sliced Sudoku-based space-filling designs and, more generally, quasi-sliced orthogonal array-based space-filling designs are useful experimental designs in several contexts, including computer experiments with categorical in addition to…
Granular packings of non-convex or elongated particles can form free-standing structures like walls or arches. For some particle shapes, such as staples, the rigidity arises from interlocking of pairs of particles, but the origins of…
We propose and study a new quasi-interpolation method on spheres featuring the following two-phase construction and analysis. In Phase I, we analyze and characterize a large family of zonal kernels (e.g., the spherical version of Poisson…
An efficient method for obtaining low-density hyperplane separators in the unsupervised context is proposed. Low density separators can be used to obtain a partition of a set of data based on their allocations to the different sides of the…
Within the framework of hierarchical clustering we show that a simple Press-Schechter-like approximation, based on spherical dynamics, provides a good estimate of the evolution of the density field in the quasi-linear regime up to $\Sigma…
We describe a robust, fast, and memory-efficient procedure that can cluster millions of structures derived from molecular dynamics simulations. The essence of the method is based on a peak-picking algorithm applied to three- and…

Dimensionality reduction and clustering techniques are frequently used to analyze complex data sets, but their results are often not easy to interpret. We consider how to support users in interpreting apparent cluster structure on scatter…
We investigate two examples of node-based cluster summation rules that have been proposed for the quasicontinuum method: a force-based approach (Knap & Ortiz, J. Mech. Phys. Solids 49, 2001), and an energy-based approach which is a…
Frank-Kasper (F-K) phases form an important set of large-cell crystalline structures describing many inter-metallic alloys. They are usually described in term of their atomic environments, with atoms having $12, 14, 15$ and $16$ neighbours,…
We consider the thermodynamically driven self-assembly of spheres onto the surface of a central sphere. This assembly process forms self-limiting, or terminal, anisotropic clusters (N-clusters) with well defined structures. We use Brownian…
