Traditionally, clustering problems are investigated under the assumption that all objects must be clustered. A shortcoming of this formulation is that a few distant objects, calle...
Given a disk O in the plane called the objective, we want to find n small disks P1, . . . , Pn called the pupils such that n i,j=1 Pi Pj ⊇ O, where denotes the Minkowski diffe...
