Efficient Matrix Chain Ordering in Polylog Time
The matrix chain ordering problem is to find the cheapest way to multiply a chain of n matrices, where the matrices are pairwise compatible but of varying dimensions. Here we give ...

Computing Polygonal Surfaces from Unions of Balls
We present a new algorithm for computing a polygonal surface from a union of balls. The method computes and connects the singular points of a given union of balls in an efficient ...

Combinatorial Roadmaps in Configuration Spaces of Simple Planar Polygons
Abstract. One-degree-of-freedom mechanisms induced by minimum pseudotriangulations with one convex hull edge removed have been recently introduced by the author to solve a family o...

An optimal polygonal boundary encoding scheme in the rate distortion sense
—In this paper, we present fast and efficient methods for the lossy encoding of object boundaries that are given as eight-connect chain codes. We approximate the boundary by a p...

Fast computation of generalized Voronoi diagrams using graphics hardware
: We present a new approach for computing generalized Voronoi diagrams in two and three dimensions using interpolation-based polygon rasterization hardware. The input primitives ma...
