Faster, Deterministic and Space Efficient Subtrajectory Clustering

Authors: Ivor van der Hoog, Thijs van der Horst, and Tim Ophelders

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)

Abstract
Given a trajectory T and a distance Δ, we wish to find a set C of curves of complexity at most 𝓁, such that we can cover T with subcurves that each are within Fréchet distance Δ to at least one curve in C. We call C an (𝓁,Δ)-clustering and aim to find an (𝓁,Δ)-clustering of minimum cardinality. This problem variant was introduced by Akitaya et al. (2021) and shown to be NP-complete. The main focus has therefore been on bicriteria approximation algorithms, allowing for the clustering to be an (𝓁, Θ(Δ))-clustering of roughly optimal size. We present algorithms that construct (𝓁,4Δ)-clusterings of 𝒪(k log n) size, where k is the size of the optimal (𝓁, Δ)-clustering. We use 𝒪(n³) space and 𝒪(k n³ log⁴ n) time. Our algorithms significantly improve upon the clustering quality (improving the approximation factor in Δ) and size (whenever 𝓁 ∈ Ω(log n / log k)). We offer deterministic running times improving known expected bounds by a factor near-linear in 𝓁. Additionally, we match the space usage of prior work, and improve it substantially, by a factor super-linear in n𝓁, when compared to deterministic results.

Faster Fréchet Distance Under Transformations

Authors: Kevin Buchin, Maike Buchin, Zijin Huang, André Nusser, and Sampson Wong

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)

Abstract
We study the problem of computing the Fréchet distance between two polygonal curves under transformations. First, we consider translations in the Euclidean plane. Given two curves π and σ of total complexity n and a threshold δ ≥ 0, we present an 𝒪̃(n^{7 + 1/3}) time algorithm to determine whether there exists a translation t ∈ ℝ² such that the Fréchet distance between π and σ + t is at most δ. This improves on the previous best result, which is an 𝒪(n⁸) time algorithm. We then generalize this result to any class of rationally parameterized transformations, which includes translation, rotation, scaling, and arbitrary affine transformations. For a class T of rationally parametrized transformations with k degrees of freedom, we show that one can determine whether there is a transformation τ ∈ T such that the Fréchet distance between π and τ(σ) is at most δ in 𝒪̃(n^{3k+4/3}) time.

Optimal Motion Planning for Two Square Robots in a Rectilinear Environment

Authors: Pankaj K. Agarwal, Mark de Berg, Benjamin Holmgren, Alex Steiger, and Martijn Struijs

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 332, 41st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2025)

Abstract
Let W ⊂ ℝ² be a rectilinear polygonal environment (that is, a rectilinear polygon potentially with holes) with a total of n vertices, and let A,B be two robots, each modeled as an axis-aligned unit square, that can move rectilinearly inside W. The goal is to compute an optimal collision-free motion plan π for A and B between a given pair of source and target configurations. We study two variants of this problem and obtain the following results. - Min-Sum: Here the goal is to compute a motion plan that minimizes the sum of the lengths of the paths of the robots. We present an O(n⁴log n)-time algorithm for computing an optimal solution to the min-sum problem. This is the first polynomial-time algorithm to compute an optimal, collision-free motion of two robots amid obstacles in a planar polygonal environment. - Min-Makespan: Here the robots can move with at most unit speed, and the goal is to compute a motion plan that minimizes the maximum time taken by a robot to reach its target location. We prove that the min-makespan variant is NP-hard.

Near-Shortest Path Routing in Hybrid Communication Networks

Authors: Sam Coy, Artur Czumaj, Michael Feldmann, Kristian Hinnenthal, Fabian Kuhn, Christian Scheideler, Philipp Schneider, and Martijn Struijs

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 217, 25th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2021)

Abstract
Hybrid networks, i.e., networks that leverage different means of communication, become ever more widespread. To allow theoretical study of such networks, [Augustine et al., SODA'20] introduced the HYBRID model, which is based on the concept of synchronous message passing and uses two fundamentally different principles of communication: a local mode, which allows every node to exchange one message per round with each neighbor in a local communication graph; and a global mode where any pair of nodes can exchange messages, but only few such exchanges can take place per round. A sizable portion of the previous research for the HYBRID model revolves around basic communication primitives and computing distances or shortest paths in networks. In this paper, we extend this study to a related fundamental problem of computing compact routing schemes for near-shortest paths in the local communication graph. We demonstrate that, for the case where the local communication graph is a unit-disc graph with n nodes that is realized in the plane and has no radio holes, we can deterministically compute a routing scheme that has constant stretch and uses labels and local routing tables of size O(log n) bits in only O(log n) rounds.

Minimum Scan Cover and Variants - Theory and Experiments

Authors: Kevin Buchin, Sándor P. Fekete, Alexander Hill, Linda Kleist, Irina Kostitsyna, Dominik Krupke, Roel Lambers, and Martijn Struijs

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 190, 19th International Symposium on Experimental Algorithms (SEA 2021)

Abstract
We consider a spectrum of geometric optimization problems motivated by contexts such as satellite communication and astrophysics. In the problem Minimum Scan Cover with Angular Costs, we are given a graph G that is embedded in Euclidean space. The edges of G need to be scanned, i.e., probed from both of their vertices. In order to scan their edge, two vertices need to face each other; changing the heading of a vertex incurs some cost in terms of energy or rotation time that is proportional to the corresponding rotation angle. Our goal is to compute schedules that minimize the following objective functions: (i) in Minimum Makespan Scan Cover (MSC-MS), this is the time until all edges are scanned; (ii) in Minimum Total Energy Scan Cover (MSC-TE), the sum of all rotation angles; (iii) in Minimum Bottleneck Energy Scan Cover (MSC-BE), the maximum total rotation angle at one vertex. Previous theoretical work on MSC-MS revealed a close connection to graph coloring and the cut cover problem, leading to hardness and approximability results. In this paper, we present polynomial-time algorithms for 1D instances of MSC-TE and MSC-BE, but NP-hardness proofs for bipartite 2D instances. For bipartite graphs in 2D, we also give 2-approximation algorithms for both MSC-TE and MSC-BE. Most importantly, we provide a comprehensive study of practical methods for all three problems. We compare three different mixed-integer programming and two constraint programming approaches, and show how to compute provably optimal solutions for geometric instances with up to 300 edges. Additionally, we compare the performance of different meta-heuristics for even larger instances.

On the Hardness of Computing an Average Curve

Authors: Kevin Buchin, Anne Driemel, and Martijn Struijs

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 162, 17th Scandinavian Symposium and Workshops on Algorithm Theory (SWAT 2020)

Abstract
We study the complexity of clustering curves under k-median and k-center objectives in the metric space of the Fréchet distance and related distance measures. Building upon recent hardness results for the minimum-enclosing-ball problem under the Fréchet distance, we show that also the 1-median problem is NP-hard. Furthermore, we show that the 1-median problem is W[1]-hard with the number of curves as parameter. We show this under the discrete and continuous Fréchet and Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) distance. This yields an independent proof of an earlier result by Bulteau et al. from 2018 for a variant of DTW that uses squared distances, where the new proof is both simpler and more general. On the positive side, we give approximation algorithms for problem variants where the center curve may have complexity at most 𝓁 under the discrete Fréchet distance. In particular, for fixed k, 𝓁 and ε, we give (1+ε)-approximation algorithms for the (k,𝓁)-median and (k,𝓁)-center objectives and a polynomial-time exact algorithm for the (k,𝓁)-center objective.

Fast Distributed Algorithms for LP-Type Problems of Low Dimension

Authors: Kristian Hinnenthal, Christian Scheideler, and Martijn Struijs

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 146, 33rd International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2019)

Abstract
In this paper we present various distributed algorithms for LP-type problems in the well-known gossip model. LP-type problems include many important classes of problems such as (integer) linear programming, geometric problems like smallest enclosing ball and polytope distance, and set problems like hitting set and set cover. In the gossip model, a node can only push information to or pull information from nodes chosen uniformly at random. Protocols for the gossip model are usually very practical due to their fast convergence, their simplicity, and their stability under stress and disruptions. Our algorithms are very efficient (logarithmic rounds or better with just polylogarithmic communication work per node per round) whenever the combinatorial dimension of the given LP-type problem is constant, even if the size of the given LP-type problem is polynomially large in the number of nodes.
