On the Bounding Boxes Obtained by Principal Component Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Principle component analysis (PCA) is commonly used to compute a bounding box of a point set in R. In this paper we give bounds on the approximation factor of PCA bounding boxes of convex polygons in R 2 (lower and upper bounds) and convex polyhedra in R (lower bound).

Geometric Applications of Principal Component Analysis
Bounding boxes are used in many applications for simplification of point sets or complex shapes. For example, in computer graphics, bounding boxes are used to maintain hierarchical data structures for fast rendering of a scene or for collision detection. Additional applications include those in shape analysis and shape simplification, or in statistics, for storing and performing range-search qu...
متن کاملUpper and Lower Bounds on the Quality of the PCA Bounding Boxes
Principle component analysis (PCA) is commonly used to compute a bounding box of a point set in Rd . The popularity of this heuristic lies in its speed, easy implementation and in the fact that usually, PCA bounding boxes quite well approximate the minimum-volume bounding boxes. In this paper we give a lower bound on the approximation factor of PCA bounding boxes of convex polytopes in arbitrar...
متن کاملBounds on the quality of the PCA bounding boxes
Principal component analysis (PCA) is commonly used to compute a bounding box of a point set in R. The popularity of this heuristic lies in its speed, easy implementation and in the fact that usually, PCA bounding boxes quite well approximate the minimumvolume bounding boxes. We present examples of discrete points sets in the plane, showing that the worst case ratio of the volume of the PCA bou...
متن کاملComputing Principal Components Dynamically
In this paper we present closed-form solutions for efficiently updating the prin-cipal components of a set of n points, when m points are added or deleted fromthe point set. For both operations performed on a discrete point set in R, we cancompute the new principal components in O(m) time for fixed d. This is a signifi-cant improvement over the commonly used approach of reco...
متن کاملMultiple Frames Matching for Object Discovery in Video
Automatic discovery of foreground objects in video sequences is important in computer vision, with applications to object tracking, video segmentation and weakly supervised learning. This task is related to cosegmentation [4, 5] and weakly supervised localization [2, 6]. We propose an efficient method for the simultaneous discovery of foreground objects in video and their segmentation masks acr...
