Treemaps with Bounded Aspect Ratio
Treemaps are a popular technique to visualize hierarchical data. The input is a weighted tree T where the weight of each node is the sum of the weights of its children. A treemap ...

Covering points by disjoint boxes with outliers
For a set of n points in the plane, we consider the axis–aligned (p, k)-Box Covering problem: Find p axis-aligned, pairwise-disjoint boxes that together contain at least n − k...

On the number of rectangulations of a planar point set
We investigate the number of different ways in which a rectangle containing a set of n noncorectilinear points can be partitioned into smaller rectangles by n (non-intersecting) s...

Minimum Vertex Cover in Rectangle Graphs
We consider the Minimum Vertex Cover problem in intersection graphs of axis-parallel rectangles on the plane. We present two algorithms: The first is an EPTAS for non-crossing rect...

Label placement by maximum independent set in rectangles
Motivated by the problem of labeling maps, we investigate the problem of computing a large non-intersecting subset in a set of n rectangles in the plane. Our results are as follow...

Probability Estimation for People Detection
This paper presents a probability method for detecting people in a static image. We simplify people as a torso and four limbs. The torso is fitted by a quadrangle, and each limb i...

Approximation of Convex Figures by Pairs of Rectangles
We consider the problem of approximating a convex gure in the plane by a pair (r; R) of homothetic (that is, similar and parallel) rectangles with r C R. We show the existenc...

Maximizing the Number of Packed Rectangles
Given a set of rectangles we are asked to pack as many of them as possible into a bigger rectangle. The rectangles packed may not overlap and may not be rotated. This problem is NP...

An Upper Bound on the Number of Rectangulations of a Point Set
Abstract. We consider the number of different ways to divide a rectangle containing n noncorectilinear points into smaller rectangles by n non-intersecting axis-parallel segments,...
