Anti-Personal landmines are a significant barrier to economic and social development in a number of countries. Several sensors have been developed but each one will probably have to find, if it exists, a specific area of applicability, determined by...

How do territorial animals gain ownership of an area? Early modelling has considered the evolution of fighting when the winner can claim the right to the resource. Recently, alternative hypotheses have been offered where repeated interactions lead to... Read More about Adaptive strategies of territory formation.

Formulated silhouettes for sketching terrain (2003)
Conference Proceeding
Whelan, J. C., & Visvalingam, M. (2003). Formulated silhouettes for sketching terrain. In Proceedings of Theory and Practice of Computer Graphics, 2003 (90-96). https://doi.org/10.1109/TPCG.2003.1206935

The mathematical definition of silhouettes within NPAR is based on the assumption that they are the eye-centered projections of occluding contours on an imaging plane. However, occluding contours are insufficient for sketching the silhouettes of hill... Read More about Formulated silhouettes for sketching terrain.
