LR-visibility in Polygons
نویسندگان
چکیده
We give a linear-time algorithm which, for a simple polygon P, computes all pairs of points s and t on P that admit LR-visibility. The points s and t partition P into two subchains. We say that P is LR-visible with respect to s and t if each point of P on the chain from s to t is visible from some point of the chain from t to s and vice-versa.

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...
متن کاملFinding the Largest Area Axis-parallel Rectangle in a Polygon
This paper considers the geometric optimization problem of nding the Largest area axis-parallel Rectangle (LR) in an n-vertex general polygon. We characterize the LR for general polygons by considering diierent cases based on the types of contacts between the rectangle and the polygon. A general framework is presented for solving a key subproblem of the LR problem which dominates the running ti...
متن کاملTemporally coherent conservative visibility
EEciently identifying polygons that are visible from a changing synthetic viewpoint is an important problem in computer graphics. Even with hardware support, simple algorithms like depth-buuering cannot achieve interactive frame rates when applied to geometric models with many polygons. However, a visibility algorithm that exploits the occlu-sion properties of the scene to identify a superset o...
متن کاملQuery point visibility computation in polygons with holes
In this paper, we consider the problem of computing the visibility of a query point inside polygons with holes. The goal is to perform this computation efficiently per query considering the cost of the preprocessing phase. Our algorithm is based on solutions in [A.L.P. Bose, J.I. Munro, Efficient visibility queries in simple polygons, Computational Geometry: Theory and Applications 23 (3) (2002...
متن کاملDirectly Visible Pairs and Illumination by Reflections in Orthogonal Polygons
We consider direct visibility in simple orthogonal polygons and derive tight lower and upper bounds on the number of strictly internal and external visibility edges. We also show a lower bound of ⌈n2 ⌉ − 1 on the number of diffuse reflections required for completely illuminating an orthogonal polygon from an arbitrary point inside it. Further, we derive lower bounds on the combinatorial complex...
