Mixture multigroup structural equation modelling for ordinal data
Abstract Social scientists often compare groups in terms of relations between latent variables (LV) (i.e. structural relations) using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). LVs are measured indirectly by questionnaires; thus, measurement invariance must be evaluated before comparisons can be made. To efficiently compare many groups, the recently proposed

FluidMap: Proportional and Spatially Consistent Layout Enrichments in Multidimensional Projections
FluidMap faithfully represents the frequency of an attribute and preserves spatial consistency. Current space‐filling methods over‐ or under‐represent attribute categories (i.e., all Voronoi‐based methods), sacrifice spatial consistency (i.e., Nmap) or both (i.e., Voronoi‐MWα).

SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...

Statistical Denoising of Transient Rendering
Abstract Transient rendering simulates light in motion, measuring the time of flight from the light source to the camera. However, the stochastic nature of Monte Carlo is aggravated in transient rendering, since samples are now spread along the temporal domain.

Survey on differential estimators for 3d point clouds
Abstract Recent advancements in 3D scanning technologies, including LiDAR and photogrammetry, have enabled the precise digital replication of real‐world objects. These methods are widely used in fields such as GIS, robotics, and cultural heritage. However, the point clouds generated by such scans are often noisy and unstructured, posing challenges for ...
