NAADF: Globally Illuminated Voxel Worlds Accelerated with Nested Axis‐Aligned Distance Fields
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Achieving realistic rendering of 3D scenes in real time using path tracing is challenging due to the high sample count required, with ray tracing as the bottleneck. Focusing on voxels as a geometry representation offers significant opportunities for optimizations, especially for tracing the rays, but also for computing the samples.

Parallel Vectors Extraction using Bézier Clipping
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract In this paper, we propose a novel local feature extraction algorithm for the parallel vectors (PV) operator. Our method is based on Bézier clipping, which is a bracketing‐based root finding method that is commonly‐used in computer‐aided geometric design.

Fast Nodal Hessian Computation for Peridynamic Fracture Simulation
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.A fast, exact nodal Hessian computation for Non‐Ordinary State‐Based Peridynamics is introduced through analytical simplification and a warp‐centric GPU strategy. The method accelerates preconditioned solvers and Vertex Block Descent, enabling interactive fracture simulation with physical accuracy.

Out-of-plane vibrations of curved nonprismatic beam under a moving load
Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2012 The forced vibrations of a curved-in-plane nonprismatic beam with a variable cross section and any curvature, generated by a load moving at a variable velocity are analyzed.

Miners' Reward Elasticity and Stability of Competing Proof‐of‐Work Cryptocurrencies
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Proof‐of‐Work cryptocurrencies employ miners to sustain the system through algorithmic reward adjustments. We develop a stochastic model of the multicurrency mining and identify conditions for stable transaction speeds. Bitcoin's algorithm requires hash supply elasticity <$<$1 for stability, while ASERT remains stable for any elasticity and ...

Piecewise linear differential systems with an algebraic line of separation
Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2020 We study the number of limit cycles of planar piecewise linear differential systems separated by a branch of an algebraic curve. We show that for each $n\in\mathbb{N}$ there exist piecewise linear differential systems separated by an algebraic curve ...

Unconditional Variance Estimation Under Complex Surveys
International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary The unconditional framework treats the samples and the variables of interest as random variables. This is particularly suitable with analytic inference, when modelling survey data. We show that variance estimation does not involve finite population corrections and joint‐inclusion probabilities, even with large sampling fractions and under ...

A Non‐Parametric Framework for Correlation Functions on Product Metric Spaces
International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary We propose a non‐parametric framework for analysing data defined over products of metric spaces, a versatile class encountered in various fields. This framework accommodates non‐stationarity and seasonality and is applicable to both local and global domains, such as the Earth's surface, as well as domains evolving over linear time or time ...
