The convex hull of ellipsoids

Proceedings of the seventeenth annual symposium on Computational geometry, 2001
The treatment of curved algebraic surfaces becomes more and more the f ocus of attention in Computational Geometry. We present a video that illustrates the computation of the convex hull of a set of ellipsoids. The underlying algorithm is an application of our work on determining a cell in a 3-dimensional arrangement of quadrics, see \cite{ghs-ccaq-01}.

Steaming on Convex Hulls

Interfaces, 2007
This is a sea story about using a simple classroom example to save a great deal of money, as well as to convince beginning Postgraduate Naval School operations research students—experienced, skeptical military officers—that mathematical analysis can yield immediate results.

The convex hull of a set of convex polygons

International Journal of Computer Mathematics, 1992
The problem of computing the convex hull of a set of convex polygons is considered in two forms: (1) the polygons have the same number of vertices (the restricted case) and (2) the polygons have different numbers of vertices (the general case). The lower bound for the general case is first given. The restricted case is then considered briefly.

Convex Hulls for Random Lines

Journal of Algorithms, 1993
Summary: Consider \(n\) i.i.d. random lines in the plane defined by their slope and distance from the origin. The slope is uniformly distributed on \([0,2\pi]\) and independent of the distance \(R\) from the origin. These lines define a set \(I\) of \(n(n-1)/2\) intersection points. It was recently shown by \textit{M. J. Atallah} [J.

A Convex Hull Inclusion Test

IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 1987
A new characterization of the interior of the convex hull of a finite point set is given. An inclusion test based on this characterization is, on average, almost linear in the number of points times the dimensionality.

A Sequentially Convex Hull

Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, 1990
Let \(S\) be a totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space and \(C(S)\) be the usual Banach space consisting of all continuous real-valued functions on \(S\). Then it is known that the closed unit ball \(U\) in \(C(S)\) is not compact but is still the closed convex hull of its extreme points.

Non-convex hull surfaces

SIGGRAPH Asia 2013 Technical Briefs, 2013
We present a new algorithm to reconstruct approximating watertight surfaces from finite oriented point clouds. The Convex Hull (CH) of an arbitrary set of points, constructed as the intersection of all the supporting linear half spaces, is a piecewise linear watertight surface, but usually a poor approximation of the sampled surface.
