Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane. We consider a variation of the classical Erd\H{o}s-Szekeres problem, presenting efficient algorithms with $O(n^3)$ running time and $O(n^2)$ space complexity that compute: (1) A subset $S$ of $P$…
We present a computational method for reconstructing a vector field on a convex polytope $\mathcal{P} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of arbitrary dimension from discrete samples. We specifically address the scenario where the vector field is subject…
We revisit the classical problem of determining the largest copy of a simple polygon $P$ that can be placed into a simple polygon $Q$. Despite significant effort, known algorithms require high polynomial running times. (Barequet and…
Given a set of $n$ points $P$ in the plane, the first layer $L_1$ of $P$ is formed by the points that appear on $P$'s convex hull. In general, a point belongs to layer $L_i$, if it lies on the convex hull of the set $P \setminus…
We consider a problem in computational origami. Given a piece of paper as a convex polygon $P$ and a point $f$ located within, fold every point on a boundary of $P$ to $f$ and compute a region that is safe from folding, i.e., the region…
We propose a geometric structure induced by any given convex polygon $P$, called $Nest(P)$, which is an arrangement of $\Theta(n^2)$ line segments, each of which is parallel to an edge of $P$, where $n$ denotes the number of edges of $P$.…
Let P be a cyclic n-gon with n\ge3, the central angles \th_0,...,\th_{n-1} in (-\pi,\pi], and the winding number w:=(\th_0+...+\th_{n-1})/(2\pi). The vertices of P are assumed to be all distinct from one another. It is then proved that P is…
We consider the problem of computing, given a set S of n points in the plane, which points of S are vertices of the convex hull of S. For certain variations of this problem, different proofs exist that the complexity of this problem in the…
Reconstructing models from unorganized point clouds presents a significant challenge, especially when the models consist of multiple components represented by their surface point clouds. Such models often involve point clouds with noise…
A {\em convex hole} (or {\em empty convex polygon)} of a point set $P$ in the plane is a convex polygon with vertices in $P$, containing no points of $P$ in its interior. Let $R$ be a bounded convex region in the plane. We show that the…
We study the problem of finding maximum-area rectangles contained in a polygon in the plane. There has been a fair amount of work for this problem when the rectangles have to be axis-aligned or when the polygon is convex. We consider this…
An n-gon is defined as a sequence \P=(V_0,...,V_{n-1}) of n points on the plane. An n-gon \P is said to be convex if the boundary of the convex hull of the set {V_0,...,V_{n-1}} of the vertices of \P coincides with the union of the edges…
A convex polygon is defined as a sequence (V_0,...,V_{n-1}) of points on a plane such that the union of the edges [V_0,V_1],..., [V_{n-2},V_{n-1}], [V_{n-1},V_0] coincides with the boundary of the convex hull of the set of vertices…
While three-dimensional (3D) building models play an increasingly pivotal role in many real-world applications, obtaining a compact representation of buildings remains an open problem. In this paper, we present a novel framework for…
Visibility graph reconstruction, which asks us to construct a polygon that has a given visibility graph, is a fundamental problem with unknown complexity (although visibility graph recognition is known to be in PSPACE). We show that two…
We describe an algorithm for computing the separating common tangents of two simple polygons using linear time and only constant workspace. A tangent of a polygon is a line touching the polygon such that all of the polygon lies to the same…
This paper describes a novel lossless compression method for point cloud geometry, building on a recent lossy compression method that aimed at reconstructing only the bounding volume of a point cloud. The proposed scheme starts by partially…
In this work, we will explore some polygons that individually are capable of filling the plane in an aperiodic way. These polygons were recently discovered by some researchers and constitute a great discovery for Mathematics. We will…
One major challenge in 3D reconstruction is to infer the complete shape geometry from partial foreground occlusions. In this paper, we propose a method to reconstruct the complete 3D shape of an object from a single RGB image, with…
