We present a framework for analyzing shape uncertainty and variability in point-sampled geometry. Our representation is mainly targeted towards discrete surface data stemming from 3D acquisition devices, where a finite number of possibly noisy samples prov ...
This paper proposes a new method for reconstruction of star-shaped 3D surfaces from scattered datasets, where such surfaces are considered as signals living in the space of square integrable functions on the unit sphere. We first propose a generalization o ...
3-D geological models are built with data collected in the field such as boreholes, geophysical measurements, pilot shafts or geological mapping. Unfortunately, these data are always limited in number. It implies that geological information is sparse and s ...
In this work we present the first results on a 'label-free' DNA analysis system based on hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin film sensors. The detection mechanism is based on absorbance measurements performed on DNA molecules in a buffer solution. ...
We provide an overview of spline and wavelet techniques with an emphasis on applications in pattern recognition. The presentation is divided in three parts. In the first one, we argue that the spline representation is ideally suited for all processing task ...
The mechanical design of hydraulic turbines is conditioned by the dynamic response of the runner that is usually estimated by a computational model. Nevertheless, the runner has complex boundary conditions that are difficult to include in the computational ...

We have studied by high resolution ARPES the spectroscopic properties of the prototype charge density wave system (TaSe4)(2)I and of the closely related insulating compound (NbSe4)(3)I. We observe features dispersing with the lattice periodicity, including ...
The electrostatic interpretation of the Jacobi-Gauss quadrature points is exploited to obtain interpolation points suitable for approximation of smooth functions defined on a simplex. Moreover, several new estimates, based on extensive numerical studies, f ...

A common technique to extend linear prediction to nonstationary signals is time segmentation: the signal is split into small portions and the modelization is carried out locally. The accuracy of the analysis is, however, dependent on the window size and on ...
An efficient recursive solution is presented for the one-sided unconstrained tangential interpolation problem. The method relies on the triangular factorization of a certain structured matrix that is implicitly defined by the interpolation data. The recurs ...
