Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

In this introduction to computational geometry the the text focuses on algorithms. All solutions and techniques described in the text are from computational geometry and are related to particular applications in robotics, graphics, CAD/CAM, and geographic information systems.

Dalla quarta di copertina

This all-new introduction to computational geometry is a textbook for high-level undergraduate and low-level graduate courses. The focus is on algorithms and hence the book is well suited for students in computer science and engineering. Motivation is provided from the application areas -- all solutions and techniques from computational geometry are related to particular applications in robotics, graphics, CAD/CAM, and geographic information systems. For students this motivation will be especially welcome. Modern insights in computational geometry are used to provide solutions that are both efficient and easy to understand and implement. All the basic techniques and topics from computational geometry, as well as several more advanced topics, are covered.
The book is largely self-contained and can be used for self-study by anyone with a basic background in algorithms.
