Abstract
Recently, Guibas et al. 7 studied deformable necklaces — flexible chains of balls, called beads, in which only adjacent balls can intersect. In this paper, we investigate a problem of covering a necklace by cylinders. We consider several problems under different optimization criteria. We show that optimal cylindrical cover of a necklace with n beads in ℝ3 by k cylinders can be computed in polynomial time. We also study a bounding volume hierarchy based on cylinders.KeywordsSmall CylinderProjective ClusterBound Volume HierarchyMinimization DiagramKinetic Data StructureThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
