Intermediate-scale (or `meso-scale') structures in networks have received considerable attention, as the algorithmic detection of such structures makes it possible to discover network features that are not apparent either at the local scale…

This work concerns adaptive refinement procedures for meshes of polygonal virtual elements. Specifically, refinement procedures previously proposed by the authors for structured meshes are generalized for the challenging case of arbitrary…

This work describes a novel image analysis approach to characterize the uniformity of objects in agglomerates by using the propagation of normal wavefronts. The problem of width uniformity is discussed and its importance for the…

A numerically efficient, accurate, and easily implemented integration scheme over convex Voronoi polyhedra (VP) is presented for use in {\it ab-initio} electronic-structure calculations. We combine a weighted Voronoi tessellation with…

Estimating similarity between vertices is a fundamental issue in network analysis across various domains, such as social networks and biological networks. Methods based on common neighbors and structural contexts have received much…

We investigate the time evolution of dense cores identified in molecular cloud simulations using dendrograms, which are a common tool to identify hierarchical structure in simulations and observations of star formation. We develop an…

Granular materials, whose features range from the particle scale to the force-chain scale to the bulk scale, are usually modeled as either particulate or continuum materials. In contrast with either of these approaches, network…

On megaparsec scales the Universe is permeated by an intricate filigree of clusters, filaments, sheets and voids, the Cosmic Web. For the understanding of its dynamical and hierarchical history it is crucial to identify objectively its…

We develop an analysis pipeline for characterizing the topology of large scale structure and extracting cosmological constraints based on persistent homology. Persistent homology is a technique from topological data analysis that quantifies…

Segmentation, a useful/powerful technique in pattern recognition, is the process of identifying object outlines within images. There are a number of efficient algorithms for segmentation in Euclidean space that depend on the variational…

Disordered hyperuniform packings are unusual amorphous states of two-phase materials that are endowed with exotic physical properties. Such hyperuniform systems are characterized by an anomalous suppression of volume-fraction fluctuations…

Understanding material composition-structure-function relationships is of critical importance for the design and discovery of novel functional materials. While most such studies focus on individual materials, we conducted a global mapping…

The dispersion surfaces of printed periodic structures in layered media are efficiently computed using a full-wave method based on the periodic Method of Moments (MoM). The geometry of the dispersion surface is estimated after mapping the…

Achieving accurate and robust global situational awareness of a complex time-evolving field from a limited number of sensors has been a longstanding challenge. This reconstruction problem is especially difficult when sensors are sparsely…

Cells of Voronoi diagrams in two dimensions are usually considered as having edges of zero width. However, this is not the case in several experimental situations in which the thickness of the edges of the cells is relatively large. In this…

We investigate the local- and long-range structure of four different space-filling cellular patterns: bubbles in a quasi-2d foam plus Voronoi constructions made around points that are uncorrelated (Poisson patterns), low discrepancy (Halton…

We present a new method to identify large scale filaments and apply it to a cosmological simulation. Using positions of haloes above a given mass as node tracers, we look for filaments between them using the positions and masses of all the…

Core-periphery (CP) structure is an important meso-scale network property where nodes group into a small, densely interconnected {core} and a sparse {periphery} whose members primarily connect to the core rather than to each other. While…

We propose a data-driven interpolation method for approximating real-valued functions on smooth manifolds, based on the Laplace--Beltrami operator and Voronoi tessellations. Given pointwise evaluations, the method constructs a continuous…

Cosmic voids are an important probe of large-scale structure that can constrain cosmological parameters and test cosmological models. We present a new paradigm for void studies: void detection in weak lensing convergence maps. This approach…
