Robust Plane Sweep for Intersecting Segments
In this paper, we reexamine in the framework of robust computation the BentleyOttmann algorithm for reporting intersecting pairs of segments in the plane. This algorithm has been reported as being very sensitive to numerical errors. Indeed, a simple analysis reveals that it involves predicates of degree 5, presumably never evaluated exactly in most implementation. Within the exact-computation p...
متن کاملExperiments on the Practical I/O Efficiency of Geometric Algorithms: Distribution Sweep vs. Plane Sweep
We present an extensive experimental study comparing the performance of four algorithms for the following orthogonal segment intersection problem: given a set of horizontal and vertical line segments in the plane, report all intersecting horizontal-vertical pairs. The problem has important applications in VLSI layout and graphics, which are large-scale in nature. The algorithms under evaluation...
متن کاملSpace-Efficient Plane-Sweep Algorithms
We introduce space-efficient plane-sweep algorithms for basic planar geometric problems. It is assumed that the input is in a read-only array of n items and that the available workspace is Θ(s) bits, where lgn ≤ s ≤ n · lg n. In particular, we give an almost-optimal algorithm for finding the closest pair among a set of n points that runs in O(n/s+n·lg s) time. We give a simple algorithm to enum...

متن کاملA Comparison of Plane Sweep Delaunay Triangulation Algorithms
This paper presents a survey as well as a new sweep-circle algorithm, on plane sweep algorithms for computing the Delaunay triangulation. The algorithms examined are: Fortune’s sweep-line algorithm, Zalik’s sweep-line algorithm, and a sweep-circle algorithm proposed by Adam, Kauffmann, Schmitt, and Spehner. We test implementations of these algorithms on a number of uniform and none-uniform dist...
