Geodesic-Preserving Polygon Simplification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Polygons are a paramount data structure in computational geometry. While the complexity of many algorithms on simple polygons or polygons with holes depends on the size of the input polygon, the intrinsic complexity of the problems these algorithms solve

Convex Decomposition for a Coverage Path Planning for Autonomous Vehicles: Interior Extension of Edges

open access: yesSensors, 2019
To cover an area of interest by an autonomous vehicle, such as an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), planning a coverage path which guides the unit to cover the area is an essential process.

Weak Visibility Queries of Line Segments in Simple Polygons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Given a simple polygon P in the plane, we present new algorithms and data structures for computing the weak visibility polygon from any query line segment in P. We build a data structure in O(n) time and O(n) space that can compute the visibility polygon

A simple algorithm for calculating the area of an arbitrary polygon

open access: yesRuhuna Journal of Science, 2017
Computing the area of an arbitrary polygon is a popular problem in pure mathematics. The two methods used are Shoelace Method (SM) and Orthogonal Trapezoids Method (OTM).

Convolutional Neural Network-Based Approximation of Coverage Path Planning Results for Parking Lots

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2023
Parking lots have wide variety of shapes because of surrounding environment and the objects inside the parking lot, such as trees, manholes, etc. In the case of paving the parking lot, as much area as possible should be covered by the construction ...

Pre-determination of prediction of yield-line pattern of slabs using Voronoi diagrams

open access: yesOpen Engineering, 2022
The article presents a new method of predicting the yield-lines of statically loaded slabs, based on roof geometry (straight skeletons) and Voronoi diagrams for a polygon.

New results on stabbing segments with a polygon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We consider a natural variation of the concept of stabbing a set of segments with a simple polygon: a segment s is stabbed by a simple polygon P if at least one endpoint of s is contained in P, and a segment set S is stabbed by P if P stabs every element

Multiscale structural analysis of defective graphene in transmission electron microscopy images using persistent homology [PDF]

open access: yesAPL Materials
We developed a persistent-homology-based strategy that converts transmission electron microscopy images of defective graphene into quantitative, multiscale descriptors spanning local carbon-atom polygons and their global connectivity.

On Reconfiguring Tree Linkages: Trees can Lock [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
It has recently been shown that any simple (i.e. nonintersecting) polygonal chain in the plane can be reconfigured to lie on a straight line, and any simple polygon can be reconfigured to be convex.

A Spatially Bounded Airspace Axiom

open access: yesAxioms, 2022
Free Route Airspace (FRA), a new concept implemented across European airspace, is designed to eliminate the adverse effects of air traffic, reduce fuel consumption, simplify and expand flight planning.
