Computing the Fréchet Distance with a Retractable Leash
All known algorithms for the Fréchet distance between curves proceed in two steps: first, they construct an efficient oracle for the decision version; second, they use this oracle to find the optimum from a finite set of critical values. We present a novel approach that avoids the detour through the decision version. This gives the first quadratic time algorithm for the Fréchet distance between...
متن کاملComputing the Fréchet Gap Distance
Measuring the similarity of two polygonal curves is a fundamental computational task. Among alternatives, the Fréchet distance is one of the most well studied similarity measures. Informally, the Fréchet distance is described as the minimum leash length required for a man on one of the curves to walk a dog on the other curve continuously from the starting to the ending points. In this paper we ...
متن کاملComputing Fréchet Distance with Speed Limits
In this paper, we study a problem on computing the Fréchet distance between two polygonal curves and provide efficient solutions for solving it. In the classical Fréchet distance, point objects move arbitrarily fast on the polygonal curves. Here, we consider the problem instance where the speed per segment is a constant within a specified range. We first describe a naive algorithm which solves ...
متن کاملComputing the Fréchet Distance between Folded Polygons
We present the first results showing that the Fréchet distance between non-flat surfaces can be approximated within a constant factor in polynomial time. Computing the Fréchet distance for surfaces is a surprisingly hard problem. It is not known whether it is computable, it has been shown to be NP-hard, and the only known algorithm computes the Fréchet distance for flat surfaces (Buchin et al.)...
متن کاملOn Computing the Fréchet Distance Between Surfaces
We describe two (1 + ε)-approximation algorithms for computing the Fréchet distance between two homeomorphic piecewise linear surfaces R and S of genus zero and total complexity n, with Fréchet distance δ. 1. A 2 (( n+ Area(R)+Area(S) (εδ)2 )2) time algorithm if R and S are composed of fat triangles (triangles with angles larger than a constant). 2. An O(D/(εδ)2) · n + 2O(D/(εδ)) time algorithm...
