Guarding Art Galleries by Guarding Witnesses
Let P be a simple polygon. We define a witness set W to be a set of points such that if any (prospective) guard set G guards W , then it is guaranteed that G guards P . We show that not all polygons admit a finite witness set. If a finite minimal witness set exists, then it cannot contain any witness in the interior of P ; all witnesses must lie on the boundary of P , and there can be at most o...
متن کاملGuarding Rectangular Art Galleries by
Consider a rectangular art gallery divided into n rectangular rooms, such that any two rooms sharing a wall in common have a door connecting them. How many guards need to be stationed in the gallery so as to protect all of the rooms in our gallery? Notice that if a guard is stationed at a door, he will be able to guard two rooms. Our main aim in this paper is to show that Èn/2 ̆ guards are alway...
متن کاملGuarding orthogonal art galleries with sliding cameras
Let P be an orthogonal polygon with n vertices. A sliding camera travels back and forth along an orthogonal line segment s ⊆ P corresponding to its trajectory. The camera sees a point p ∈ P if there is a point q ∈ s such that pq is a line segment normal to s that is completely contained in P . In the MinimumCardinality Sliding Cameras (MCSC) problem, the objective is to find a set S of sliding ...
متن کاملGuarding curvilinear art galleries with vertex
10 One of the earliest and most well known problems in computational geometry is 11 the so-called art gallery problem. The goal is to compute the minimum number of 12 guards needed to cover the interior of any polygon with n vertices; the guards are 13 to be placed on the vertices of the polygon. We consider the problem of guarding an 14 art gallery which is modeled as a polygon with curvilinea...
متن کاملGuarding Orthogonal Art Galleries with Sliding Cameras
We study the problem of guarding an orthogonal art gallery with security cameras sliding back and forth along straight tracks. We show that if only vertical (alternatively, horizontal) tracks are allowed, then a solution minimizing the number of tracks can be found in polynomial time, and if both orientations are allowed, then a 3-approximation can be found in polynomial time.
