In this paper simultaneous localization and map building is performed with a hybrid, metric - topological, approach. A global topological map connects local metric maps, allowing a compact environment model, which does not require global metric consistency ...
The 3-regular nets with 4 and 6 vertices per unit cell are enumerated. The large number of nets obtained (5 nets and 269 nets resp.) is in stark contrast to the relatively small number of nets which are of crystallographic interest. This subset of crystall ...
The purpose of this paper is to give the classification of the Bott-Virasoro coadjoint orbits, with nonzero central charge, in the functional analytic setting of smooth Hilbert manifolds. The central object of the paper is thus the completion of the Bott-V ...
The purpose of this paper is finding the essential attributes underlying the convexity theorems for momentum maps. It is shown that they are of a topological nature; more specifically, we show that convexity follows if the map is open onto its image and ha ...
We establish an arithmeticity vs. non-linearity alternative for irreducible lattices in suitable product groups, such as for instance products of topologically simple groups. This applies notably to (a large class of) Kac–Moody groups. The alternative reli ...
This paper considers the k-set-agreement problem in a synchronous message passing distributed system where up to t processes can fail by crashing. We determine the number of communication rounds needed for all correct processes to reach a decision in a giv ...
In the last five years, Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) has become the most popular and effective surgical technique for the treatment of Parkinsons disease (PD). The Subthalamic Nucleus (STN) is the usual target involved when applying DBS. Unfortunately, th ...
A wide range of different image modalities can be found today in medical imaging. These modalities allow the physician to obtain a non-invasive view of the internal organs of the human body, such as the brain. All these three dimensional images are of extr ...
Availability of Visible Human Dataset (VHD) has provided numerous possibilities for its exploitation in both medical applications and 3D animation. We present our interactive tools which enable extraction of surfaces for different organs, including bones, ...
