Prof. H. Samet of the University of Maryland will speak
on ``An Overview of Quadtree Research.''
TIME: 10:30 AM (Please Note)
ROOM: MC 5158
ABSTRACT
Region representation is an important issue in image
processing, cartography, and computer graphics. A wide
number of representations is currently in use. Recent-
ly, there has been much interest in a hierarchical data
structure termed the quadtree. It is compact and
depending on the nature of the region saves space as
well as time and also facilitates operations such as
search. In this talk we give a brief overview of the
quadtree data structure and related research results.
