OffsetCrust: Variable-Radius Offset Approximation with Power Diagrams
Offset surfaces, defined as the Minkowski sum of a base surface and a rolling ball, play a crucial role in geometry processing, with applications ranging from coverage motion planning to brush modeling. While considerable progress has been made in computing constant-radius offset surfaces, computing variable-radius offset surfaces remains a challenging problem. In this paper, we present OffsetCrust, a novel framework that efficiently addresses the variable-radius offsetting problem by computing…

Vandaag is de eerste verjaardag van ons gasloze huis. Hoewel nogal overschaduwd door de perikelen met ons beider gezondheid zijn we er natuurlijk ook heel blij mee
Een van de manieren om dat te laten zien is dat we de gevel, gevels, alle 4 hebben laten schoonmaken met zachte, biologische middelen en lagedrukspuit
En ik ben daar zo tevreden over dat ik meteen op de planning wil voor het terras, want dat wordt zonder zeep niet schoon en mét hun zeep wel, dat zie je al waar gemorst is…

UAVs Meet Agentic AI: A Multidomain Survey of Autonomous Aerial Intelligence and Agentic UAVs
Agentic UAVs represent a new frontier in autonomous aerial intelligence, integrating perception, decision-making, memory, and collaborative planning to operate adaptively in complex, real-world environments. Driven by recent advances in Agentic AI, these systems surpass traditional UAVs by exhibiting goal-driven behavior, contextual reasoning, and interactive autonomy. We provide a comprehensive foundation for understanding the architectural components and enabling technologies that distinguish…

Quantum sensing with ultracold simulators in lattice and ensemble systems: a review
Sensing of parameters is an important aspect in all disciplines, with applications ranging from fundamental science to medicine. Quantum sensing and metrology is an emerging field that lies at the cross-roads of quantum physics, quantum technology, and the discipline in which the parameter estimation is to be performed. While miniaturization of devices often requires quantum mechanics to be utilized for understanding and planning of a parameter estimation, quantum-enhanced sensing is also possi…

On the Existence and Nonexistence of Splitter Sets
In this paper, the existence of perfect and quasi-perfect splitter sets in finite abelian groups is studied, motivated by their application in coding theory for flash memory storage. For perfect splitter sets we view them as splittings of $\mathbb{Z}_n$, and using cyclotomic polynomials we derive a general condition for the existence of such splittings under certain circumstances. We further establish a relation between $B[-k, k](q)$ and $B[-(k-1), k+1](q)$ splitter sets, and give a necessary a…

Bei den #Kritzelspielen ging es heute zufällig um #Käse. Zufällig. Denn während der Planung wies jemand Marianne und Katrin darauf hin, dass der 4. Juni der Tag des Käses ist.
Das ist mein Ergebnis, daran hab ich nun aber auch einige Zeit „rumgemalt!“

Prediction-Augmented Mechanism Design for Weighted Facility Location
Facility location is fundamental in operations research, mechanism design, and algorithmic game theory, with applications ranging from urban infrastructure planning to distributed systems. Recent research in this area has focused on augmenting classic strategyproof mechanisms with predictions to achieve an improved performance guarantee against the uncertainty under the strategic environment. Previous work has been devoted to address the trade-off obstacle of balancing the consistency (near-opt…

DeepRetro: Retrosynthetic Pathway Discovery using Iterative LLM Reasoning
Retrosynthesis, the identification of precursor molecules for a target compound, is pivotal for synthesizing complex molecules, but faces challenges in discovering novel pathways beyond predefined templates. Recent large language model (LLM) approaches to retrosynthesis have shown promise but effectively harnessing LLM reasoning capabilities for effective multi-step planning remains an open question. To address this challenge, we introduce DeepRetro, an open-source, iterative, hybrid LLM-based …
