We address the problem of computing n-finger force-closure grasps of 3D objects. As 3D force-closure grasps involve 6D wrench space, we use Pl¨ucker coordinates and Grassmann algebra, to demonstrate that wrenches associated to any three non-aligned contact ...
We generalize the basic results of Vinberg's theta-groups, or periodically graded reductive Lie algebras, to fields of good positive characteristic. To this end we clarify the relationship between the little Weyl group and the (standard) Weyl group. We ded ...
We give a convergence estimate for a Petrov-Galerkin Algebraic Multigrid method. In this method, the prolongations are defined using the concept of smoothed aggregation while the restrictions are simple aggregation operators. The analysis is carried out by ...
To predict fluid phase distribution in porous media, the effect of geometric properties on flow processes must be understood. In this study, we analyze the effect of volume, surface, curvature and connectivity (the four Minkowski functionals) on the hydrau ...
We consider the two message set problem, where a source broadcasts a common message W1 to an arbitrary set of receivers U and a private message W2 to a subset of the receivers P⊆U. Transmissions occur over l ...
This paper addresses the problem of efficient representation of scenes captured by distributed omnidirectional vision sensors. We propose a novel geometric model to describe the correlation between different views of a 3-D scene. We first approximate the c ...
We address the problem of keyword spotting in continuous speech streams when training and testing conditions can be different. We propose a keyword spotting algorithm based on sparse representation of speech signals in a time-frequency feature space. The t ...
The real homology of a compact Riemannian manifold M is naturally endowed with the stable norm. The stable norm on H-1 (M. R) arises from the Riemannian length functional by homogenization. It is difficult and interesting to decide which norms on the finit ...
This paper addresses the problem of efficient representation and compression of scenes captured by distributed vision sensors. We propose a novel geometrical model to describe the correlation between different views of a three-dimensional scene. We first a ...
In this article we address the numerical simulation of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems featuring large added-mass effect. We analyze different preconditioners for the coupled system matrix obtained after space- time discretization and linearizat ...
