Structural Variation in Genoms

Comparing genomes of parents and children separates inherited genetic variants from new mutations. The rate of novo mutations is an important parameter in models of human evolution.

Markerless Reconstruction of Static and Dynamic Scenes

The 3D reconstruction of detailed models of persons in general apparel is, until now, possible in indoor sudios with controlled environment only. With new algorithms this seems it could succeed even in arbitrarily complex outdoor scenes with only a few camera.

3D Object Detection

Using a new design model (3D object class detector) not only the efficient detection of objects and their 2D position in a picture is possible, but also their relative 3D position and view point estimation.

Flow Analysis

We developed a novel mathematical approach that allows streak and time lines to be described using ordinary differential equations therewith overcoming the drawbacks of former complex algorithms.

Computation of Equilibrium Prices

The interrelation between supply and demand is easily described as long as you have just one good. For the complicated calculations in an economy with many goods, many suppliers, and many buyers Ran Duan and Kurt Mehlhorn found a relatively simple combinatorial algorithm.
