چکیده

The VC-dimension plays an important role for the algorithmic problem of guarding art galleries efficiently. We prove that inside a simple polygon at most 5 points can be shattered by L1-visibility polygons and give an example where 5 points are shattered. The VCdimension is exactly 5. The proof idea for the upper bound is different from previous approaches.

On the VC-Dimension of Visibility in Monotone Polygons

We show that the VC-dimension of visibility on the boundary of a monotone polygon is exactly 6. Our lower bound construction matches the best known lower bound for simple polygons.

Single-Point Visibility Constraint Minimum Link Paths in Simple Polygons

We address the following problem: Given a simple polygon $P$ with $n$ vertices and two points $s$ and $t$ inside it, find a minimum link path between them such that a given target point $q$ is visible from at least one point on the path. The method is based on partitioning a portion of $P$ into a number of faces of equal link distance from a source point. This partitioning is essentially a shor...

Minimum Hidden Guarding of Histogram Polygons

A hidden guard set G is a set of point guards in polygon P that all points of the polygon are visible from some guards in G under the constraint that no two guards may see each other. In this paper, we consider the problem for finding minimum hidden guard sets in histogram polygons under orthogonal visibility. Two points p and q are orthogonally visible if the orthogonal bounding rectangle for ...

A Fast Algorithm for Covering Rectangular Orthogonal Polygons with a Minimum Number of r-Stars

Introduction This paper presents an algorithm for covering orthogonal polygons with minimal number of guards. This idea examines the minimum number of guards for orthogonal simple polygons (without holes) for all scenarios and can also find a rectangular area for each guards. We consider the problem of covering orthogonal polygons with a minimum number of r-stars. In each orthogonal polygon P,...

VC-Dimension of Visibility on Terrains

A guarding problem can naturally be modeled as a set system (U ,S) in which the universe U of elements is the set of points we need to guard and our collection S of sets contains, for each potential guard g, the set of points from U seen by g. We prove bounds on the maximum VC-dimension of set systems associated with guarding both 1.5D terrains (monotone chains) and 2.5D terrains (polygonal ter...
