Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣科技大學 === 資訊工程系 === 93 === Given a polygonal curve P with n vertices, the closed polygonal
approximation problem is defined to find a closed polygon P' to
approximate P with minimal polygonal segments under a given
tolerant error. This paper presents an O(En^2)-time
algorithm for solving the closed polygonal approximation problem
where E denotes the minimum of covering edge numbers for all
vertices. Since it's almost always that E<<n, the proposed
algorithm is much faster than the previous algorithm, which takes
O(n^3) time, for solving the same problem. Based on several real
closed curves, experimental results indicate that our proposed
algorithm can reduce the overhead of executive time in the previous
algorithm up to 97.4% for solving the closed polygonal
approximation problem.
