Medial Axis Aware Learning of Signed Distance Functions
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract We propose a novel variational method to compute a highly accurate global signed distance function (SDF) to a given point cloud. To this end, the jump set of the gradient of the SDF, which coincides with the medial axis of the surface, is explicitly taken into account through a higher‐order variational formulation that enforces linear growth ...

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Rewilding is often summarized with the three C's of Carnivores, Cores and Corridors. In this essay we propose a complementary perspective that focuses on the three B's of Bovines, Buffers and Barriers. This complementary perspective draws attention to rewilding as a social (rather than only ecological) challenge and is illustrated with insights from ...

Helicopter drops in an open economy when markets are incomplete
Economic Inquiry, EarlyView.Abstract We characterize the spillover effects of helicopter drops and optimal monetary policy in a tractable two‐country overlapping generations model with incomplete markets. As helicopter drops can affect the distribution of income across countries, they create room for redistribution policies which are particularly relevant when agents are ...

The role of structural transformation in regional convergence in Japan: 1874–2008
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract Japan's regional convergence of productivity levels throughout the twentieth century can be best described as a cumulative process of ‘catching up, forging ahead, and falling behind’. Using a novel dataset spanning 135 years (1874–2008), this study finds support for a crucial role played by structural transformation in convergence. The pace of
