For two d-dimensional point sets A, B of size up to n, the Chamfer distance from A to B is defined as CH(A,B) = \sum_{a \in A} \min_{b \in B} \|a-b\|. The Chamfer distance is a widely used measure for quantifying dissimilarity between sets…

The choice of a point set, to be used in numerical integration, determines, to a large extent, the error estimate of the integral. Point sets can be characterized by their discrepancy, which is a measure of its non-uniformity. Point sets…
