Geometric morphometrics of rodent sperm head shape. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Mammalian spermatozoa, particularly those of rodent species, are extremely complex cells and differ greatly in form and dimensions. Thus, characterization of sperm size and, particularly, sperm shape represents a major challenge. No consensus exists on a

Effect of geometric shape of piston skirt on power loss in piston rod driving type bent-axis-type axial piston pump

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2021
The bent-axis-type axial piston pump is a type of positive-displacement machinery that is better equipped to solve environmental problems than the swash-plate-type piston pump.

Monotone Simultaneous Paths Embeddings in $\mathbb{R}^d$ [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2018
We study the following problem: Given $k$ paths that share the same vertex set, is there a simultaneous geometric embedding of these paths such that each individual drawing is monotone in some direction?

Shape sensitive geometric monitoring [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the twenty-seventh ACM SIGMOD-SIGACT-SIGART symposium on Principles of database systems, 2008
A fundamental problem in distributed computation is the distributed evaluation of functions. The goal is to determine the value of a function over a set of distributed inputs, in a communication efficient manner. Specifically, we assume that each node holds a time varying input vector, and we are interested in determining, at any given time, whether ...

Geometric Aspects of Shape Optimization

open access: yesThe Journal of Geometric Analysis, 2023
AbstractWe present a review of known results in shape optimization from the point of view of Geometric Analysis. This paper is devoted to the mathematical aspects of the shape optimization theory. We focus on the theory of gradient flows of objective functions and their regularizations.

Low-Complexity Geometric Shaping [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Lightwave Technology, 2021
Approaching Shannon's capacity via geometric shaping has usually been regarded as challenging due to modulation and demodulation complexity, requiring look-up tables to store the constellation points and constellation bit labeling. To overcome these challenges, in this paper, we study lattice-based geometrically shaped modulation formats in ...

Lattice-based geometric shaping [PDF]

open access: yes2020 European Conference on Optical Communications (ECOC), 2020
Geometrically shaped multidimensional constellations with more than 1028 points are simulated using fast and low-complexity algorithms without any look-up tables to store the constellation points. At the same symbol error rate, more than 78% and 114% reach improvement are demonstrated compared with 4- and 16-QAM, respectively.

Asymmetrical interference effects between two-dimensional geometric shapes and their corresponding shape words. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Nativists have postulated fundamental geometric knowledge that predates linguistic and symbolic thought. Central to these claims is the proposal for an isolated cognitive system dedicated to processing geometric information.
