SEMINAR ANNOUNCEMENT
Joint RIACS and CR Branch seminar
SPEAKER: Donald Allison
Virginia Polytechnic and State University
Blacksburg, Virginia
TOPIC: Fast Geometric Algorithms
ABSTRACT: The emergence of computational geometry as a discipline has been
strongly motivated by the number of application areas such as computer
graphics image processing and remote sensing that require manipulation of
objects in a real time environment. Research in computational geometry may
be classified into four main categories: 1) minimization and maximization
problems, 2) inclusion problems, 3) intersection problems, and 4) closest
point problems. In this seminar several problems from category 1 will be
discussed.
