| Abstract | Given an n vertex simple polygon M , we show how to compute the Euclidean center of M constrained to lie in the interior of M , in a polygonal region inside M or on the boundary of M in O(n log n + k) time where k is the number of intersections between M and the furthest point Voronoi diagram of the vertices of M . We show how to compute the geodesic center of M constrained to the boundary in O(n log n) time and the geodesic center of M constrained to lie in a polygonal region in O(n(n + k)) time where k is the number of intersections of the geodesic furthest point Voronoi diagram of M with the polygonal region. Furthermore, we show how to compute the link center of M constrained to the boundary of M in O(n log n) time. Finally, we show how to combine several of these criteria. For example, how to find the points whose maximum Euclidean and Link distance are minimized. Computing such locations has applications in such diverse fields as Geographic Information Systems (G.I.S.) and the ma... |
