Despite the central role of cultural distances in social sciences, literature is surprisingly scarce in quantitatively measuring and graphically representing this concept in Latin America. This study addresses this issue ...

In this work we approach the problem of model comparison between skew families. For the univariate skew model, we measure the sensitivity of the skewness parameter using the L-1 distance between symmetric and asymmetric ...

Epi-Lipschitz sets in normed spaces are represented as sublevel sets of Lipschitz functions satisfying a so-called qualification condition. Canonical representations through the signed distance functions associated with ...

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in training Neural Networks to approximate Unsigned Distance Fields (UDFs) for representing open surfaces in the context of 3D reconstruction. However, UDFs are ...

Given a pair of planar curves, one can define its generalized area distance, a concept that generalizes the area distance of a single curve. In this paper, we show that the generalized area distance of a pair of planar ...

We present a scalable and unsupervised approach for content-based retrieval on 3D model collections. Our goal is to represent a 3D shape as a set of discriminative local features, which is important to maintain robustness ...

We looking for, in the decades of 60 and 70, time where it had an intense use of the educational resource didactic material, support know what the didactic material production bring us in Distance Education today. We ...
