Clustering in Polygonal Domains

Authors: Mark de Berg, Leyla Biabani, Morteza Monemizadeh, and Leonidas Theocharous

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 283, 34th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2023)

Abstract
We study various clustering problems for a set D of n points in a polygonal domain P under the geodesic distance. We start by studying the discrete k-median problem for D in P. We develop an exact algorithm which runs in time poly(n,m) + n^O(√k), where m is the complexity of the domain. Subsequently, we show that our approach can also be applied to solve the k-center problem with z outliers in the same running time. Next, we turn our attention to approximation algorithms. In particular, we study the k-center problem in a simple polygon and show how to obtain a (1+ε)-approximation algorithm which runs in time 2^{O((k log(k))/ε)} (n log(m) + m). To obtain this, we demonstrate that a previous approach by Bădoiu et al. [Bâdoiu et al., 2002; Bâdoiu and Clarkson, 2003] that works in ℝ^d, carries over to the setting of simple polygons. Finally, we study the 1-center problem in a simple polygon in the presence of z outliers. We show that a coreset C of size O(z) exists, such that the 1-center of C is a 3-approximation of the 1-center of D, when z outliers are allowed. This result is actually more general and carries over to any metric space, which to the best of our knowledge was not known so far. By extending this approach, we show that for the 1-center problem under the Euclidean metric in ℝ², there exists an ε-coreset of size O(z/ε).

TSP in a Simple Polygon

Authors: Henk Alkema, Mark de Berg, Morteza Monemizadeh, and Leonidas Theocharous

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 244, 30th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2022)

Abstract
We study the Traveling Salesman Problem inside a simple polygon. In this problem, which we call tsp in a simple polygon, we wish to compute a shortest tour that visits a given set S of n sites inside a simple polygon P with m edges while staying inside the polygon. This natural problem has, to the best of our knowledge, not been studied so far from a theoretical perspective. It can be solved exactly in poly(n,m) + 2^O(√nlog n) time, using an algorithm by Marx, Pilipczuk, and Pilipczuk (FOCS 2018) for subset tsp as a subroutine. We present a much simpler algorithm that solves tsp in a simple polygon directly and that has the same running time.

Clique-Based Separators for Geometric Intersection Graphs

Authors: Mark de Berg, Sándor Kisfaludi-Bak, Morteza Monemizadeh, and Leonidas Theocharous

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 212, 32nd International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2021)

Abstract
Let F be a set of n objects in the plane and let 𝒢^{×}(F) be its intersection graph. A balanced clique-based separator of 𝒢^{×}(F) is a set 𝒮 consisting of cliques whose removal partitions 𝒢^{×}(F) into components of size at most δ n, for some fixed constant δ < 1. The weight of a clique-based separator is defined as ∑_{C ∈ 𝒮}log (|C|+1). Recently De Berg et al. (SICOMP 2020) proved that if S consists of convex fat objects, then 𝒢^{×}(F) admits a balanced clique-based separator of weight O(√n). We extend this result in several directions, obtaining the following results. - Map graphs admit a balanced clique-based separator of weight O(√n), which is tight in the worst case. - Intersection graphs of pseudo-disks admit a balanced clique-based separator of weight O(n^{2/3} log n). If the pseudo-disks are polygonal and of total complexity O(n) then the weight of the separator improves to O(√n log n). - Intersection graphs of geodesic disks inside a simple polygon admit a balanced clique-based separator of weight O(n^{2/3} log n). - Visibility-restricted unit-disk graphs in a polygonal domain with r reflex vertices admit a balanced clique-based separator of weight O(√n + r log(n/r)), which is tight in the worst case. These results immediately imply sub-exponential algorithms for MAXIMUM INDEPENDENT SET (and, hence, VERTEX COVER), for FEEDBACK VERTEX SET, and for q-Coloring for constant q in these graph classes.
