Field modeling with sampled distances

Computer-Aided Design, 2006
Traditional mesh-based approaches to the modeling and analysis of physical fields within geometric models require some form of topological reconstruction and conversion in the mesh generation process. Such manipulations tend to be tedious and error-prone manual processes that are not easily automated.

Validating camera trap distance sampling for chimpanzees

American Journal of Primatology, 2019
The extension of distance sampling methods to accommodate observations from camera traps has recently enhanced the potential to remotely monitor multiple species without the need of additional data collection (sign production and decay rates) or ...

Mark‐Recapture Distance Sampling for Aerial Surveys of Ungulates on Rangelands

Wildlife Society bulletin, 2020
Aerial surveys are an efficient technique for counting animals over large geographic areas such as rangelands. In southwestern rangelands, aerial surveys are routinely conducted for ungulates, with the implicit understanding that abundance estimates ...

Revisiting adaptively sampled distance fields

Proceedings XIV Brazilian Symposium on Computer Graphics and Image Processing, 2002
Implicit surfaces are a powerful shape description for many applications in computer graphics. An implicit surface is defined by a function f:R/sup 3//spl rarr/R as the set of points satisfying f(p)=0. Implicit representation becomes more effective when f is a signed distance function, i.e., when |f| gives the distance to the closest point on the ...

Advanced Distance Sampling

2004
Abstract This advanced text focuses on the uses of distance sampling to estimate the density and abundance of biological populations. It addresses new methodologies, new technologies and recent developments in statistical theory and is the follow up companion to Introduction to Distance Sampling (OUP, 2001).

Some Developments in 'Distance Sampling'

Biometrics, 1967
Frequency distributions of the distance from a randomly located point to the nearest (or nth nearest) individual plant or animal are described. Results applicable to systematic and contagious (negative binomial) distributions are derived as supplements to the considerable existing literature on randomly distributed individuals.

Introduction to Distance Sampling

2001
Abstract Offers a comprehensive introduction to distance sampling, a statistical method used by many biologists and conservationists to estimate animal abundance. The text discusses point transect sampling and line transect sampling and also describes several other related techniques.

Distance-Based Sampling of Software Configuration Spaces

2019 IEEE/ACM 41st International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE), 2019
Configurable software systems provide configuration options to adjust and optimize their functional and non-functional properties. However, to obtain accurate performance predictions, a representative sample set of configurations is required. Different sampling strategies have been proposed, which come with different advantages and disadvantages.
