Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Given a set S of n line segments in the plane, we say that a region R subset of R-2 is a stabber for S if R. contains exactly one endpoint of each segment of S. In this paper we provide optimal or near-optimal algorithms for reporting all combinatorially different stabbers for several shapes of stabbers. Specifically, we consider the case in which the stabber can be described as the intersection of axis-parallel halfplanes (thus the stabbers are halfplanes, strips, quadrants, 3-sided rectangles, or rectangles). The running times areO(n) (for the halfplane case), O(nlogn) (for strips, quadrants, and 3-sided rectangles), and O(n(2)logn) (for rectangles). (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
