Data Separation by Sparse Representations
Recently, sparsity has become a key concept in various areas of applied mathematics, computer science, and electrical engineering. One application of this novel methodology is the separation of data, which is composed of two (or more) morphologically distinct constituents. The key idea is to carefully select representation systems each providing sparse approximations of one of the components. T...
متن کاملGraphical Representations of Molecular Surface Properties
The major features of a scalar property P defined on a molecular surface can be captured in the form of a directed graph derived from the gradient flow of P . These molecular surface property graphs (MSPG) have vertices at the critical points (maxima, minima and saddles) of P and edges formed by the trajectories of the gradient flow that pass through the saddles. Techniques developed for the co...
متن کاملSeparation of Critical Points and Flow-Complex-Based Surface Reconstruction
The distance function to surfaces in three dimensions plays a key role in many geometric modeling applications such as medial axis approximations, surface reconstructions, offset computations, feature extractions among others. In many cases, the distance function induced by the surface can be approximated by the distance function induced by a discrete sample of the surface. The critical points ...
متن کاملCritical Points for Surface Maps and the Benedicks-carleson Theorem
We give an alternative proof of the Benedicks-Carleson theorem on the existence of strange attractors in Hénon-like maps in the plane. To bypass a huge inductive argument, we introduce an induction-free explicit definition of dynamically critical points. The argument is sufficiently general and in particular applies to the case of non-invertible maps as well. It naturally raises the question of...
متن کاملEvaluation of the protein solvent-accessible surface using reduced representations in terms of critical points of the electron density
The aim of our study is the development of a method for calculating the interface of dimerization of protein-protein complexes based on simplified medium-resolution structures. In particular, we wished to evaluate if the existing concepts for the computation of the Solvent-Accessible Surface Area (SASA) of macromolecules could be applied to medium-resolution models. Therefore, we selected a set...
