Book Description
A human observer can effortlessly identify visible portions of geometric objects present in the environment. However, computations of visible portions of objects from a viewpoint involving thousands of objects is a time consuming task even for high speed computers. To solve such visibility problems, efficient algorithms have been designed. This book presents some of these visibility algorithms in two dimensions. Specifically, basic algorithms for point visibility, weak visibility, shortest paths, visibility graphs, link paths and visibility queries are all discussed. Several geometric properties are also established through lemmas and theorems. With over 300 figures and hundreds of exercises, this book is ideal for graduate students and researchers in the field of computational geometry. It will also be useful as a reference for researchers working in algorithms, robotics, computer graphics and geometric graph theory, and some algorithms from the book can be used in a first course in computational geometry.

VISIBILITY IN THE PLANE AND ITS RELATED PROBLEMS (COMPUTATIONAL GEOMETRY, ALGORITHM).
Author: Sung Yong Shin
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Algorithms
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
Like convexity, the notion of visibility is a fundamental geometric property. It lends new geometric insight to well-known problems such as triangulation and convex hull construction. It also leads to efficient algorithms for solving new problems such as automatic disassembly and spatial planning in robotics.

Art Gallery Theorems and Algorithms
Author: Joseph O'Rourke
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN:
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
Art gallery theorems and algorithms are so called because they relate to problems involving the visibility of geometrical shapes and their internal surfaces. This book explores generalizations and specializations in these areas. Among the presentations are recently discovered theorems on orthogonal polygons, polygons with holes, exterior visibility, visibility graphs, and visibility in three dimensions. The author formulates many open problems and offers several conjectures, providing arguments which may be followed by anyone familiar with basic graph theory and algorithms. This work may be applied to robotics and artificial intelligence as well as other fields, and will be especially useful to computer scientists working with computational and combinatorial geometry.
