The first example of a closed orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold was constructed by F. Lobell in 1931 from eight copies of the right-angled 14-hedron. We consider the family of hyperbolic polyhedra which generalize the Lambert cube and the Lobell polyhedron. ...
The characterization of signals and images in manifolds often lead to efficient dimensionality reduction algorithms based on manifold distance computation for analysis or classification tasks. We propose in this paper a method for the discretization of sig ...
This paper addresses the problem of image alignment based on random measurements. Image alignment consists of estimating the relative transformation between a query image and a reference image. We consider the specific problem where the query image is prov ...
In this paper we consider the coupling between two diffusion-reaction problems, one taking place in a three-dimensional domain Ω, the other in a one-dimensional subdomain Λ. This coupled problem is the simplest model of fluid flow in a three-dimensional po ...
Given a two-dimensional smooth manifold M and a bijective pro jection p from M on a fixed plane (or a subset of that plane), we explore systematically how a wavelet transform (WT) on M may be generated from a plane WT by the inverse projection. Examples whe ...
Transformation-invariant analysis of signals often requires the computation of the distance from a test pattern to a transformation manifold. In particular, the estimation of the distances between a transformed query signal and several transformation manif ...

This paper describes a two-sweep control design method to stabilize the acrobot, an input-affine under-actuated system, at the upper equilibrium point. In the forward sweep, the system is successively reduced, one dimension at a time, until a two-dimensiona ...
The subject of this thesis lies in the intersection of differential geometry and functional analysis, a domain usually called global analysis. A central object in this work is the group Ds(M) of all orientation preserving diffeomorphisms of a compact manif ...
We study some relation between some geometrically defined classes of diffeomorphisms between manifolds and the Lq,p-cohomology of these manifolds. Some applications to vanishing and non vanishing results in Lq,p-cohomology are given. ...
Transformation invariance is an important property in pattern recognition, where different observations of the same object typically receive the same label. This paper focuses on a transformation invariant distance measure that represents the minimum dista ...
