Geometric intersections – what are they for?One of the most basic problems in computational geometry Solid modeling

– Intersection of object boundaries in CSG

Overlay of subdivisions, e.g. layers in GIS– Bridges on intersections of roads and rivers– Maintenance responsibilities (road network X county boundaries)

Robotics– Collision detection and collision avoidance

Computer graphics– Rendering via ray shooting (intersection of the ray with objects)

Line segment intersection Intersection of complex shapes is often reduced to simpler

and simpler intersection problems Line segment intersection is the most basic intersection

algorithm Problem statement:

Given n line segments in the plane, report all points where a pair of line segments intersect.

Problem complexity– Worst case – I = O(n2) intersections– Practical case – only some intersections– Use an output sensitive algorithm

• O(n log n + I) optimal randomized algorithm• O(n log n + I log n ) sweep line algorithm - % [Berg]

Plane sweep line algorithm recapitulation

Horizontal line (sweep line, scan line) l moves top-down (or vertical line: left to right) over the set of objects

The move is not continuous, but l jumps from one event point to another

– Event points are in priority queue or sorted list (~y)– The (left) top-most event point is removed first– New event points may be created

(usually as interaction of neighbors on the sweep line) and inserted into the queue

Scan-line status– Stores information about the objects intersected by l – It is updated while stopping on event point

Line segment intersection - Sweep line alg. Avoid testing of pairs of segments far apart Compute intersections of neighbors on the sweep line only O(n log n + I log n ) time in O(n) memory

– 2n steps for end points, – I steps for intersections,

– log n search the status tree

Ignore “degenerate cases” (most of them will be solved later on)– No segment is parallel to the sweep line – Segments intersect in one point and do not overlap– No three segments meet in a common point

Page 8: INTERSECTIONS OF LINE SEGMENTS AND AXIS ALIGNED …

Line segment intersections

Status = ordered sequence of segments intersecting the sweep line l

Events (waiting in the priority queue)= points, where the algorithm actually does something

– Segment end-points

• known at algorithm start

– Segment intersections between neighboring segments along SL

• discovered as the sweep executes

Detecting intersections

[Berg]

Intersection events must be detected and inserted to the event queue before they occur

Given two segments a, b intersecting in point p, there must be a placement of sweep line l prior to p, such that segments a, b are adjacent along l(only adjacent will be tested for intersection)

– segments a, b are not adjacent when the alg. starts– segments a, b are adjacent just before p=> there must be an event point when a,b become

adjacent and therefore are tested for intersection=> All intersections are found

Felkel: Computational geometry

(9 / 96)

Page 10: INTERSECTIONS OF LINE SEGMENTS AND AXIS ALIGNED …

Data structuresSweep line l status = order of segments along l Balanced binary search tree of segments Coords of intersections with l vary as l moves

=> store pointers to line segments in tree nodes– Position of l is plugged in the y=mx+b to get the x-key

Define: Order (top-down, lexicographic)

iff or and top-down, left-right approach(points on l treated left to right)

Operations– Insertion of computed intersection points– Fetching the next event

– Intersections processed twice or even more times– Memory complexity up to O(n2)

b) Ordered dictionary (balanced binary tree)– Can check duplicated events (adds just constant factor)– Nothing inserted twice– If non-neighbor intersections are deleted

i.e., if only intersections of neighbors along l are storedthen memory complexity just O(n)

handleEventPoint() principle

Upper endpoint U(p)– insert p (on sj) to status T– add intersections with left and

right neighbors to Q

Intersection C(p)– switch order of segments in T– add intersections with nearest left

and nearest right neighbor to Q

neighbors to Q

handleEventPoint(p) // precisely: handle all events with point p1. Let U(p) = set of segments whose Upper endpoint is p.

These segments are stored with the event point p (will be added to T)2. Search T for all segments S(p) that contain p (are adjacent in T):

Let L(p) ∪ S(p) = segments whose Lower endpoint is pLet C(p) ∪ S(p) = segments that Contain p in interior

Complexities of rectangle intersections

n rectangles, s intersected pairs found O(n log n) preprocessing time to separately sort

– x-coordinates of the rectangles for the plane sweep – the y-coordinates for initializing the interval tree.

The plane sweep itself takes O(n log n + s) time, so the overall time is O(n log n + s)

O(n) space This time is optimal for a decision-tree algorithm

(i.e., one that only makes comparisons between rectangle coordinates).
