A polygon C is an intersecting polygon for a set O of objects in the plane if C intersects each object in O, where the polygon includes its interior. We study the problem of computing the minimum-perimeter intersecting polygon and the…
Intersection detection between three-dimensional bodies has various applications in computer graphics, video game development, robotics as well as military industries. In some respects, entities do not want to disclose sensitive information…
As we move through the world, the pattern of light projected on our eyes is complex and dynamic, yet we are still able to distinguish between moving and stationary objects. We propose that humans accomplish this by exploiting constraints…
Collision detection is a core component of robotics applications such as simulation, control, and planning. Traditional algorithms like GJK+EPA compute witness points (i.e., the closest or deepest-penetration pairs between two objects) but…
A closed convex subset of a normed linear space is said to have the strong separation property if it can be strongly separated from every other disjoint closed and convex set by a closed hyperplane. In this paper we give some results on the…
We present a fully distributed collision avoidance algorithm based on convex optimization for a team of mobile robots. This method addresses the practical case in which agents sense each other via measurements from noisy on-board sensors…
Let $K$ be a convex body in Euclidean space ${\mathbb R}^d$, and let a translation invariant, locally finite Borel measure on the space of hyperplanes in ${\mathbb R}^d$ be given. For $\delta\ge 0$, we consider the set of all points $x$ for…
This paper details an approach to linearise differentiable but non-convex collision avoidance constraints tailored to convex shapes. It revisits introducing differential collision avoidance constraints for convex objects into an optimal…
We introduce the convex matching distance, a novel metric for comparing functions with values in the real plane. This metric measures the maximal bottleneck distance between the persistence diagrams associated with the convex combinations…
We introduce a new Lagrangian particle tracking algorithm that tracks particles in three dimensions to separations between trajectories approaching contact. The algorithm also detects low Weber number binary collisions that result in…
We initiate a systematic study of tolerant testers of image properties or, equivalently, algorithms that approximate the distance from a given image to the desired property (that is, the smallest fraction of pixels that need to change in…
Let $F$ be a set of $n$ objects in the plane and let $G(F)$ be its intersection graph. A balanced clique-based separator of $G(F)$ is a set $S$ consisting of cliques whose removal partitions $G(F)$ into components of size at most $\delta…
Change detection, i.e. identification per pixel of changes for some classes of interest from a set of bi-temporal co-registered images, is a fundamental task in the field of remote sensing. It remains challenging due to unrelated forms of…
Collision detection between objects is critical for simulation, control, and learning for robotic systems. However, existing collision detection routines are inherently non-differentiable, limiting their applications in gradient-based…
Approximation problems involving a single convex body in $d$-dimensional space have received a great deal of attention in the computational geometry community. In contrast, works involving multiple convex bodies are generally limited to…
There are many space subdivision and space partitioning techniques used in many algorithms to speed up computations. They mostly rely on orthogonal space subdivision, resp. using hierarchical data structures, e.g. BSP trees, quadtrees,…
Interference detection of arbitrary geometric objects is not a trivial task due to the heavy computational load imposed by implementation issues. The hierarchically structured bounding boxes help us to quickly isolate the contour of…
Given a bichromatic point set $P=\textbf{R} \cup \textbf{B}$ of red and blue points, a separator is an object of a certain type that separates $\textbf{R}$ and $\textbf{B}$. We study the geometric separability problem when the separator is…
Two elements, $x$ and $y$, are separated by a set $S$ if it contains exactly one of $x$ and $y$. We prove that any set of $n$ points in general position in the plane can be separated by $O(n\log\log n/\log n)$ convex sets, and for some…
This work proposes an algorithm to bound the minimum distance between points on trajectories of a dynamical system and points on an unsafe set. Prior work on certifying safety of trajectories includes barrier and density methods, which do…
