Our algorithm works on a sufficiently dense eps-sample and comes with a convergence guarantee for the non-discrete, but continuous approximation object.  As our approach also works correctly for a set of curves, we discuss the following application of the medial axis: The medial axis of two curves $gamma_1$ and $gamma_2$ can be applied to compute piecewise-linear simplifications of $gamma_1$ and $gamma_2$. In particular, a controllable tradeoff between the degree of simplification and the degree of falsification of the summed Fr'{e}chet distance between $gamma_1$ and $gamma_2$ is obtained. Finally, we show that for simplifying $gamma_1$ and $gamma_2$, our approximation, instead of $M_{gamma}$, can be applied while guaranteeing the same result.","PeriodicalId":54969,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Computational Geometry & Applications","volume":"81 4 1","pages":"360-429"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86532459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By interesting observations, we show that it is sufficient to consider at most $n$ \"candidate\" lists of ordered intervals. Further, although explicitly maintaining these lists takes $Omega(n^2)$ time and space, by more observations and a pruning technique, we present an algorithm that can compute an optimal solution in $O(nlog n)$ time and $O(n)$ space.

The connectivity is compactly described by the persistence diagram. One limitation of the current framework is the reliance on metric distances, whereas in many practical applications objects are compared by non-metric dissimilarity measures. Examples are the Kullback-Leibler divergence, which is commonly used for comparing text and images, and the Itakura-Saito divergence, popular for speech and sound. These are two members of the broad family of dissimilarities called Bregman divergences. \u0000We show that the framework of topological data analysis can be extended to general Bregman divergences, widening the scope of possible applications. In particular, we prove that appropriately generalized Cech and Delaunay (alpha) complexes capture the correct homotopy type, namely that of the corresponding union of Bregman balls. Consequently, their filtrations give the correct persistence diagram, namely the one generated by the uniformly growing Bregman balls. Moreover, we show that unlike the metric setting, the filtration of Vietoris-Rips complexes may fail to approximate the persistence diagram. We propose algorithms to compute the thus generalized Cech, Vietoris-Rips and Delaunay complexes and experimentally test their efficiency. Lastly, we explain their surprisingly good performance by making a connection with discrete Morse theory.","PeriodicalId":54969,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Computational Geometry & Applications","volume":"84 1","pages":"67-86"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85929854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its dual linear program expresses the problem of finding a minimum-weight set of cycles (allowing 2-cycles) covering all vertices in a complete geometric graph. For points in a Euclidean space of any finite dimension~$d$, with any convex distance function on this space, this graph can be replaced by a sparse subgraph obeying a separator theorem. This graph structure leads to an algorithm for finding the optimum set of balls in time $O(n^{2-1/d})$, improving the $O(n^3)$ time of a naive cycle cover algorithm. As a subroutine, we provide an algorithm for weighted bipartite matching in graphs with separators, which speeds up the best previous algorithm for this problem on planar bipartite graphs from $O(n^{3/2}log n)$ to $O(n^{3/2})$ time. We also show how to constrain the balls to all have radius at least a given threshold value, and how to apply our radius-sum optimization algorithms to the problem of embedding a finite metric space into a star metric minimizing the average distance to the hub.","PeriodicalId":54969,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Computational Geometry & Applications","volume":"89 1","pages":"316-339"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83878644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are, however, there are some limitations to such results. Designing and developing quality animation for teaching and learning can sometimes be challenging (Morrison, Tversky and Betrancourt, 2000).

This parameter is rarely known and therefore has to be estimated. We characterize the statistical difficulty of this problem by deriving upper and lower bounds on the minimax rate for estimating the dimension. First, we consider the problem of testing the hypothesis that the support of the data-generating probability distribution is a well-behaved manifold of intrinsic dimension $d_1$ versus the alternative that it is of dimension $d_2$, with $d_{1}<d_{2}$. With an i.i.d. sample of size $n$, we provide an upper bound on the probability of choosing the wrong dimension of $Oleft( n^{-left(d_{2}/d_{1}-1-epsilonright)n} right)$, where $epsilon$ is an arbitrarily small positive number. The proof is based on bounding the length of the traveling salesman path through the data points. We also demonstrate a lower bound of $Omega left( n^{-(2d_{2}-2d_{1}+epsilon)n} right)$, by applying Le Cam's lemma with a specific set of $d_{1}$-dimensional probability distributions. We then extend these results to get minimax rates for estimating the dimension of well-behaved manifolds. We obtain an upper bound of order $O left( n^{-(frac{1}{m-1}-epsilon)n} right)$ and a lower bound of order $Omega left( n^{-(2+epsilon)n} right)$, where $m$ is the embedding dimension.","PeriodicalId":54969,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Computational Geometry & Applications","volume":"21 1","pages":"42-95"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87229780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
