The Innovative Polygon Trend Analysis (IPTA) as a Simple Qualitative Method to Detect Changes in Environment—Example Detecting Trends of the Total Monthly Precipitation in Semiarid Area

open access: yesSustainability, 2021
Precipitation is a crucial component of the water cycle, and its unpredictability may dramatically influence agriculture, ecosystems, and water resource management.

PARETO ENVELOPES IN SIMPLE POLYGONS [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computational Geometry & Applications, 2010
For a set T of n points in a metric space (X, d), a point y ∈ X is dominated by a point x ∈ X if d(x, t) ≤ d(y, t) for all t ∈ T and there exists t′ ∈ T such that d(x, t′) < d(y, t′). The set of non-dominated points of X is called the Pareto envelope of T. H.

Incremental Construction of Motorcycle Graphs

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2022
We show that the so-called motorcycle graph of a planar polygon can be constructed by a randomized incremental algorithm that is simple and experimentally fast.

Self-approaching paths in simple polygons [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Geometry, 2020
We study self-approaching paths that are contained in a simple polygon. A self-approaching path is a directed curve connecting two points such that the Euclidean distance between a point moving along the path and any future position does not increase, that is, for all points $a$, $b$, and $c$ that appear in that order along the curve, $|ac| \ge |bc ...

Calculations of Dihedral Groups Using Circular Indexation [PDF]

open access: yesMathematics Interdisciplinary Research, 2019
‎In this work‎, ‎a regular polygon with n sides is described by a periodic (circular) sequence with period n. ‎Each element of the sequence represents a vertex of the polygon‎.

The Visibility Center of a Simple Polygon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We introduce the \emph{visibility center} of a set of points inside a polygon -- a point $c_V$ such that the maximum geodesic distance from $c_V$ to see any point in the set is minimized. For a simple polygon of $n$ vertices and a set of $m$ points inside it, we give an $O((n+m) \log {(n+m)})$ time algorithm to find the visibility center.

Generation of simple polygons from ordered points using an iterative insertion algorithm.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
To construct a simple polygon from a set of plane points, we propose an iterative inserting ordered points (IIOP) algorithm. Using a given a set of ordered non-collinear points, a simple polygon can be formed and its shape is dependent on the sorting ...

Testing simple polygons

open access: yesComputational Geometry, 1997
AbstractWe consider the problem of verifying a simple polygon in the plane using “test points”. A test point is a geometric probe that takes as input a point in Euclidean space, and returns “+” if the point is inside the object being probed or “−” if it is outside.

Stabbing information of a simple polygon

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 1996
The purpose of this paper is to investigate a new combinatorial object describing the structure of a simple polygon and compare it to other well-known objects such as the internal and external visibility graphs, the convex hull and the order type of the vertex set. We call the new object the stabbing information.
