We develop a new interior-point method (IPM) for symmetric-cone optimization, a common generalization of linear, second-order-cone, and semidefinite programming. In contrast to classical IPMs, we update iterates with a geodesic of the cone…

There are many space subdivision and space partitioning techniques used in many algorithms to speed up computations. They mostly rely on orthogonal space subdivision, resp. using hierarchical data structures, e.g. BSP trees, quadtrees,…

We present an algorithm that enumerates all the minimal triangulations of a graph in incremental polynomial time. Consequently, we get an algorithm for enumerating all the proper tree decompositions, in incremental polynomial time, where…

We introduce a novel representation and optimization framework for discrete geodesics on triangle meshes that reduces artifacts of linear methods on uneven and coarse discretizations. Our method computes squared geodesic distances from…

Acceleration of algorithms is becoming a crucial problem, if larger data sets are to be processed. Evaluation of algorithms is mostly done by using computational geometry approach and evaluation of computational complexity. However in…

In the complex of curves of a closed orientable surface of genus $g,$ $\mathcal{C}(S_g),$ a preferred finite set of geodesics between any two vertices, called \emph{efficient geodesics} introduced by Birman, Margalit, and Menasco in…

We introduce the heat method for computing the shortest geodesic distance to a specified subset (e.g., point or curve) of a given domain. The heat method is robust, efficient, and simple to implement since it is based on solving a pair of…

Geodesic paths and distances are among the most popular intrinsic properties of 3D surfaces. Traditionally, geodesic paths on discrete polygon surfaces were computed using shortest path algorithms, such as Dijkstra. However, such algorithms…

In this paper, we have examined the problem of embedding a cycle of n vertices onto a given set of n points inside a simple polygon. The goal of the problem is that the cycle must be embedded without bends and does not intersect itself and…

This paper presents Polylidar, an efficient algorithm to extract non-convex polygons from 2D point sets, including interior holes. Plane segmented point clouds can be input into Polylidar to extract their polygonal counterpart, thereby…

In this paper we present a novel non-parametric method of simplifying piecewise linear curves and we apply this method as a statistical approximation of structure within sequential data in the plane. We consider the problem of minimizing…

Computing an array of all pairs of geodesic distances between the pixels of an image is time consuming. In the sequel, we introduce new methods exploiting the redundancy of geodesic propagations and compare them to an existing one. We show…

We present two algorithms for computing the geodesic distance between phylogenetic trees in tree space, as introduced by Billera, Holmes, and Vogtmann (2001). We show that the possible combinatorial types of shortest paths between two trees…

Comparing and computing distances between phylogenetic trees are important biological problems, especially for models where edge lengths play an important role. The geodesic distance measure between two phylogenetic trees with edge lengths…

Let $P$ be a simple polygon of $n$ vertices. We consider two-point $L_1$ shortest path queries in $P$. We build a data structure of $O(n)$ size in $O(n)$ time such that given any two query points $s$ and $t$, the length of an $L_1$ shortest…

We present an efficient dynamic data structure that supports geodesic nearest neighbor queries for a set of point sites $S$ in a static simple polygon $P$. Our data structure allows us to insert a new site in $S$, delete a site from $S$,…

Given a graph $ G $ with $ n $ vertices and a set $ S $ of $ n $ points in the plane, a point-set embedding of $ G $ on $ S $ is a planar drawing such that each vertex of $ G $ is mapped to a distinct point of $ S $. A straight-line…

We unveil an alluring alternative to parametric search that applies to both the non-geodesic and geodesic Fr\'echet optimization problems. This randomized approach is based on a variant of red-blue intersections and is appealing due to its…

A path from s to t on a polyhedral terrain is descending if the height of a point p never increases while we move p along the path from s to t. No efficient algorithm is known to find a shortest descending path (SDP) from s to t in a…

In this paper we propose a fast optimization algorithm for approximately minimizing convex quadratic functions over the intersection of affine and separable constraints (i.e., the Cartesian product of possibly nonconvex real sets). This…
