  2. Largest empty rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Largest_empty_rectangle

    In computational geometry, the largest empty rectangle problem, [2] maximal empty rectangle problem [3] or maximum empty rectangle problem, [4] is the problem of finding a rectangle of maximal size to be placed among obstacles in the plane. There are a number of variants of the problem, depending on the particularities of this generic ...

  3. Minimum bounding box algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_bounding_box...

    For the convex polygon, a linear time algorithm for the minimum-area enclosing rectangle is known. It is based on the observation that a side of a minimum-area enclosing box must be collinear with a side of the convex polygon. [ 1 ]

  4. Aspect ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspect_ratio

    For example, the aspect ratio of a rectangle is the ratio of its longer side to its shorter side—the ratio of width to height, [1] [2] when the rectangle is oriented as a "landscape". The aspect ratio is most often expressed as two integer numbers separated by a colon (x:y), less commonly as a simple or decimal fraction. The values x and y do ...

  5. Minimum bounding rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_bounding_rectangle

    A series of geometric shapes enclosed by its minimum bounding rectangle. In computational geometry, the minimum bounding rectangle (MBR), also known as bounding box (BBOX) or envelope, is an expression of the maximum extents of a two-dimensional object (e.g. point, line, polygon) or set of objects within its x-y coordinate system; in other words min(x), max(x), min(y), max(y).

  6. Circle packing in a square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing_in_a_square

    Circle packing in a square is a packing problem in recreational mathematics, where the aim is to pack n unit circles into the smallest possible square.Equivalently, the problem is to arrange n points in a unit square aiming to get the greatest minimal separation, d n, between points. [1]

  7. Moving sofa problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_sofa_problem

    The Hammersley sofa has area 2.2074 but is not the largest solution Gerver's sofa of area 2.2195 with 18 curve sections A telephone handset, a closer match than a sofa to Gerver's shape A lower bound on the sofa constant can be proven by finding a specific shape of a high area and a path for moving it through the corner.

  8. Maximum disjoint set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_disjoint_set

    In computational geometry, a maximum disjoint set (MDS) is a largest set of non-overlapping geometric shapes selected from a given set of candidate shapes.. Every set of non-overlapping shapes is an independent set in the intersection graph of the shapes.

  9. Projected area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projected_area

    Example of a projected area from a hardness indentation. Projected area is the two dimensional area measurement of a three-dimensional object by projecting its shape on to an arbitrary plane.
