  text: 'Mathematical objects can be measured unambiguously, but not so objects from
    our physical world. Even the total length of tubelike shapes has its difficulties.
    We introduce a combination of geometric, probabilistic, and topological methods
    to design a stable length estimate for tube-like shapes; that is: one that is
    insensitive to small shape changes.'
