We give an O( log n) factor approximation algorithm for covering a rectilinear polygon with holes using axis-parallel rectangles. This is the first polynomial time approximation a...
—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...
A decomposition of a polygon P is a set of polygons whose geometric union is exactly P. We consider the problem of decomposing a polygon, which may contain holes, using subpolygon...
It is presented in this paper a new approach to the problem of feature extraction. The approach is based on the edge detection, where a set of feature vectors is taken from the sou...

Given a set P of n points in convex position in the plane, we prove that there exists a point p ∈ P such that the number of distinct distances from p is at least (13n−6)/36 . ...
