HW4 - using the robots
|
Higuys, Tov informed me that not a lot pf groups apprpooched him. He is trying his best to maximise his availability but don'r assume that he will be there right before the deadline. The responsibility for making sure you have slots on the real robots are YOURS. Best, Oren |

Some notes: (1) Some students submitted in singles: please group as pairs for second HW. Subnmission in singles will not be accepted. (2) Some students did not submit. Please reach out to me to explain why. I would hate to give you a zero. (3) Points deduced followed a key. I added a file with IDs + explanations to the HW. If you want to discuss anything - simply reach out to me. Oren |

CS Colloquium - Micha Sharir (TAU)
|
We are honoured to host Micha Sharir, the winner of the 2025 Knuth prize for "seminal contributions to computational and discrete geometry, the development of algorithmic motion planning, transforming the field of computational geometry, and inspiring generations of researchers.” Speaker: Micha Sharir (TAU) Date: Tuesday, January 6th Time: 14:30-15:30 Location: Taub 337 Title: Computational Geometry: Per Aspera Ad Astra Abstract: I will present an overview of some topics in computational (and combinatorial, and a bit algebraic) geometry, that constitute milestones in the work in this area by myself and by many colleagues and (former) students in the past 45 years. The topics include, as time permits, algorithmic motion planning, arrangements, lower envelopes, incidences, space decomposition, polynomial partitioning, and more. Bio: Micha Sharir received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from Tel Aviv University in 1976, and then switched to Computer Science, doing his postdoctoral studies at the Courant Institute of New York University. He returned to Tel Aviv University in 1980, and has been there, at the School of Computer Science, ever since. He is also a visiting research professor at the Courant Institute, where he has been the deputy head of the Robotics Lab (1985-89). He has served as the head of the Computer Science Department (twice) and as the head of the School of Mathematics (1997-99). He is one of the co-founders of the Minerva Center for Geometry at Tel Aviv University. His research interests are in computational and combinatorial geometry and their applications. He has pioneered (with Jack Schwartz) the study of algorithmic motion planning in robotics during the early 1980s, and has been involved in many fundamental research studies that have helped to shape the fields of computational and combinatorial geometry. Among his major achievements, in addition to his earlier work on robotics, are the study of Davenport-Schinzel sequences and their numerous geometric applications, the study of geometric arrangements and their applications, efficient algorithms in geometric optimization (including the introduction and analysis of generalized linear programming), and the study of combinatorial problems involving point configurations, including, since 2008, the application of algebraic techniques to problems involving incidences, distinct and repeated distances, and other related problems in combinatorial and computational geometry. His work won him several prizes, including a Max-Planck research prize (1992, jointly with Emo Welzl), the Feher Prize (1999), the Mif'al Hapais' Landau Prize (2002), and the EMET Prize (2007). He is the incumbent of the Nizri Chair in computational geometry and robotics, a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery (since 1997), has an honorary doctorate degree from the University of Utrecht (1996), and is a member of the Israeli Academy of Sciences and Humanities (2018). He has supervised 27 Ph.D. students, many of which are now at various stages of an academic career, in Israel and abroad. |
