Simple Robots with Minimal Sensing: From Local Visibility to Global Geometry
We consider problems of geometric exploration and selfdeployment for simple robots that can only sense the combinatorial (non-metric) features of their surroundings. Even with suc...

The visibility skeleton: a powerful and efficient multi-purpose global visibility tool
Many problems in computer graphics and computer vision require accurate global visibility information. Previous approaches have typically been complicated to implement and numeric...

Exact Illumination in Polygonal Environments using Vertex Tracing
Abstract. Methods for exact computation of irradiance and form factors associated with polygonal objects have ultimately relied on a formula for a differential area to polygon form...

On finding a guard that sees most and a shop that sells most
We present a near-quadratic time algorithm that computes a point inside a simple polygon P having approximately the largest visibility polygon inside P, and a nearlinear time algo...

Generalized Watchman Route Problem with Discrete View Cost
In this paper, we introduce a generalized version of the Watchman Route Problem (WRP) where the objective is to plan a continuous closed route in a polygon (possibly with holes) a...
