The relationship between form and function of the carnivore mandible

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dietary morphology diversified extensively in Carnivoraformes (living Carnivora and their stem relatives) during the Cenozoic (the last 66 million years) as they evolved to capture, handle, and process new animal and plant diets. We used 3D geometric morphometrics, mechanical advantage, and finite element analysis to test the evolutionary ...

Improvement of volume estimation of stockpile of earthworks using a concave hull- footprint [PDF]

open access: yesMicro, Macro & Mezzo Geoinformation, 2015
In the estimation of volume of stockpiles of earthworks, the question is no longer whether the data collected is dense and accurate (equipment and techniques capable of accurate data measurement are available), but how to manipulate the data to yield ...

Limit Distribution of Convex-Hull Estimators of Boundaries [PDF]

open access: yes
Given n independent and identically distributed observations in a set G with an unknown function g, called a boundary or frontier, it is desired to estimate g from the observations.

A Content-based Image Retrieval System Based On Convex Hull Geometry

open access: yes, 2015
Developments in data storage technologies and image acquisition methods have led to the assemblage of large data banks. Management of these large chunks of data in an efficient manner is a challenge.

Shaping the human face: Periosteal bone modeling across ontogeny

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Facial morphology is a defining aspect of Homo sapiens that distinguishes our species from fossil ancestors and plays a central role in estimating age, sex, and ancestry in both past and present populations. Understanding how the face develops during postnatal ontogeny is essential for interpreting adult facial variation.

Probabilities of hitting a convex hull

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Mathématique, 2014
In this note, we consider the non-negative least-square method with a random matrix. This problem has connections with the probability that the origin is not in the convex hull of many random points. As related problems, suitable estimates are obtained as well on the probability that a small ball does not hit the convex hull.
