In-Place Randomized Slope-Selection

Authors: Henrik Blunck and Jan Vahrenhold

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 6091, Data Structures (2006)


Abstract
Slope selection is a well-known algorithmic tool used in the context of computing robust estimators for fitting a line to a collection $mathcal{P}$ of $n$ points in the plane. We demonstrate that it is possible to perform slope selection in expected $mathcal{O}(n log n)$ time using only constant extra space in addition to the space needed for representing the input. Our solution is based upon a space-efficient variant of Matouv{s}ek's randomized interpolation search, and we believe that the techniques developed in this paper will prove helpful in the design of space-efficient randomized algorithms using samples. To underline this, we also sketch how to compute the repeated median line estimator in an in-place setting.
