摘要: Let π(a, b) denote the shortest path between two points a, b inside a simple polygon P, which totally lies in P. The geodesic distance and bin P is defined as length of π (a, b), denoted by gd(a, contrast with Euclidean b, d(a, b). Given disjoint polygons Pand Q plane, bridge problem asks for line segment (optimal bridge)that connects point p on boundary q such that sum three distances gd(p′, p), d(p, q)and gd(q, q′), any p′ ∈ q′ Q, minimized. We present an O(nlog3n) time algorithm finding optimal polygons. This significantly improves upon previous O(n2)time bound.
