A Simple Randomized O(n log n)-Time Closest-Pair Algorithm in Doubling Metrics
Consider a metric space $(P,dist)$ with $N$ points whose doubling dimension is a constant. We present a simple, randomized, and recursive algorithm that computes, in $O(N \log N)$ expected time, the closest-pair distance in $P$. To generate recursive calls, we use previous results of Har-Peled and Mendel, and Abam and Har-Peled for computing a sparse annulus that separates the points in a balanced way.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Computational Geometry & Applications (IJCGA) is a quarterly journal devoted to the field of computational geometry within the framework of design and analysis of algorithms.
Emphasis is placed on the computational aspects of geometric problems that arise in various fields of science and engineering including computer-aided geometry design (CAGD), computer graphics, constructive solid geometry (CSG), operations research, pattern recognition, robotics, solid modelling, VLSI routing/layout, and others. Research contributions ranging from theoretical results in algorithm design — sequential or parallel, probabilistic or randomized algorithms — to applications in the above-mentioned areas are welcome. Research findings or experiences in the implementations of geometric algorithms, such as numerical stability, and papers with a geometric flavour related to algorithms or the application areas of computational geometry are also welcome.
