A Qualitative Theory for Shape Representation

open access: yesINTELIGENCIA ARTIFICIAL, 2006
Shapes represent a very important way with which we perceive and reason about the world. In this paper we present an ordering information approach to the qualitative description of shapes. The shapes are described by a qualitative representation of angles, side lengths and describing the concavities and convexities of the boundary.

A theory of L-shaped floor-plans

open access: yesTheoretical Computer Science, 2023
Existing graph theoretic approaches are mainly restricted to floor-plans with rectangular boundary. In this paper, we introduce floor-plans with $L$-shaped boundary (boundary with only one concave corner). To ensure the L-shaped boundary, we introduce the concept of non-triviality of a floor-plan.

The Relationship Between Physical Activity and Left Ventricular Remodeling in Childhood Cancer Survivors Treated With Anthracyclines: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Anthracycline‐related cardiac remodeling precedes heart failure in childhood cancer survivors. The objectives of this study were to determine the relationships between patient‐specific factors, moderate‐to‐vigorous physical activity (MVPA), and cardiac remodeling.
