We present a new formulation of a shape space containing all continuously defined 2D spline curves up to a similarity transform of a reference shape. We are able to measure a distance between an arbitrary curve and the shape space itself. Our contribution ...
Systems with hundreds of microphones for acoustic field acquisition, or hundreds of loudspeakers for rendering, have been proposed and built. To analyze, design, and apply such systems requires a framework that allows us to leverage the vast set of tools a ...
We prove that amenability of a discrete group is equivalent to dimension flatness of certain ring inclusions naturally associated with measure preserving actions of the group. This provides a group-measure space theoretic solution to a conjecture of Luck s ...
Particle Swarm Optimization is a simple and elegant optimization algorithm used to solve a large variety of different real-valued problems. When it comes to solving combinations of continuous and discrete problems however, PSO by itself is not very well su ...
A stabilized semidiscrete finite element discretization of the transient transport equation is studied in the framework of anisotropic meshes. A priori and a posteriori error estimates are derived, the involved constants being independent of the mesh aspec ...
