Approximating the Smallest k-Enclosing Geodesic Disc in a Simple Polygon
WADS(2024)
摘要
We consider the problem of finding a geodesic disc of smallest radius
containing at least k points from a set of n points in a simple polygon
that has m vertices, r of which are reflex vertices. We refer to such a
disc as a SKEG disc. We present an algorithm to compute a SKEG disc using
higher-order geodesic Voronoi diagrams with worst-case time O(k^2 n + k^2
r + min(kr, r(n-k)) + m) ignoring polylogarithmic factors.
We then present two 2-approximation algorithms that find a geodesic disc
containing at least k points whose radius is at most twice that of a SKEG
disc. The first algorithm computes a 2-approximation with high probability in
O((n^2 / k) log n log r + m) worst-case time with O(n + m) space. The
second algorithm runs in O(n log^2 n log r + m) expected time using O(n
+ m) expected space, independent of k. Note that the first algorithm is
faster when k ∈ω(n / log n).
