چکیده
Given a rectangle A and a set S of n points in A, the maximum empty rectangle problem is that of finding a largest-area rectangle which is contained in A. has its sides parallel to Ihose ofA. and does Dot contain any of the points in S. This Dote describes an efficient algorithm for solving this problem.

On the maximum empty rectangle problem
Given a rectangle A and a set S of n points in A, we consider the problem, called the maximum empty rectangle problem, of finding a maximum area rectangle that is fully contained in A and does not contain any point of S in its interior. An O(n’) time algorithm is presented. Furthermore, it is shown that if the points of S are drawn randomly and independently from A, the problem can be solved in...
متن کاملInplace Algorithm for Priority Search Tree and its use in Computing Largest Empty Axis-Parallel Rectangle
There is a high demand of space-efficient algorithms in builtin or embedded softwares. In this paper, we consider the problem of designing space-efficient algorithms for computing the maximum area empty rectangle (MER) among a set of points inside a rectangular region R in 2D. We first propose an inplace algorithm for computing the priority search tree with a set of n points in R using O(logn) ...
متن کاملA Branch and Bound Method for Finding Flow Path Designing of Agv Systems (RESEARCH NOTE)
One of the important factor in the design of automated guided vehicle systems (AGVS) is the flow path design. This paper presents a branch-and-bound algorithm to determining the flow path by considering not only loaded-vehicles, but also empty-vehicles. The objective is to find the flow path, which will minimize total travel of loaded vehicles. We know that in branch-and-bound method a branch c...
متن کاملAlgorithm for finding the largest inscribed rectangle in polygon
In many industrial and non-industrial applications, it is necessary to identify the largest inscribed rectangle in a certain shape. The problem is studied for convex and non-convex polygons. Another criterion is the direction of the rectangle: axis aligned or general. In this paper a heuristic algorithm is presented for finding the largest axis aligned inscribed rectangle in a general polygon. ...
متن کاملOn the Number of Maximum Empty Boxes Amidst n Points
We revisit the following problem (along with its higher dimensional variant): Given a set S of n points inside an axis-parallel rectangle U in the plane, find a maximum-area axis-parallel sub-rectangle that is contained in U but contains no points of S. 1. We prove that the number of maximum-area empty rectangles amidst n points in the plane is O(n logn 2α(n)), where α(n) is the extremely slowl...
