Robust numerical integration on curved polyhedra based on folded decompositions

Annalisa Buffa, Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Xiaodong Wei

We present a novel method to perform numerical integration over curved polyhedra enclosed by high-order parametric surfaces. Such a polyhedron is first decomposed into a set of triangular and/or rectangular pyramids, whose certain faces correspond to the g ...

On the Richter-Thomassen Conjecture about Pairwise Intersecting Closed Curves

János Pach, Gábor Tardos

A long-standing conjecture of Richter and Thomassen states that the total number of intersection points between any n simple closed Jordan curves in the plane, so that any pair of them intersect and no three curves pass through the same point, is at least ...

Similarity-Based Shape Priors for 2D Spline Snakes

Michaël Unser, Daniel Andreas Schmitter

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 ...

Snakes with Tangent-Based Control and Energies for Bioimage Analysis

Michaël Unser, Ricard Delgado Gonzalo, Virginie Sophie Uhlmann

We propose a novel active contour for the analysis of filament-like structures and boundaries—features that traditional snakes based on closed curves have difficulties to delineate. Our method relies on a parametric representation of an open curve involvin ...

Exponential Hermite Splines For The Analysis Of Biomedical Images

Michaël Unser, Virginie Sophie Uhlmann, Ricard Delgado Gonzalo

We present a new exponential B-spline basis that enables the construction of active contours for the analysis of biomedical images. Our functions generalize the well-known polynomial Hermite B-splines and provide us with a direct control over the tangents ...

Constructing reparameterization invariant metrics on spaces of plane curves

Martins Bruveris, Martin Bauer

Metrics on shape spaces are used to describe deformations that take one shape to another, and to define a distance between shapes. We study a family of metrics on the space of curves, which includes several recently proposed metrics, for which the metrics ...

Snakes With an Ellipse-Reproducing Property

Michaël Unser, Philippe Thévenaz, Chandra Sekhar Seelamantula, Ricard Delgado Gonzalo

We present a new class of continuously defined parametric snakes using a special kind of exponential splines as basis functions. We have enforced our bases to have the shortest possible support subject to some design constraints to maximize efficiency. Whi ...

Ideal knots and other packing problems of tubes

Henryk Gerlach

This thesis concerns optimal packing problems of tubes, or thick curves, where thickness is defined as follows. Three points on a closed space curve define a circle. Taking the infimum over all radii of pairwise-distinct point triples defines the thickness ...
