  2. No-three-in-line problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No-three-in-line_problem

    Equivalently, this is the smallest set that could be produced by a greedy algorithm that tries to solve the no-three-in-line problem by placing points one at a time until it gets stuck. [3] If only axis-parallel and diagonal lines are considered, then every such set has at least points. [18]

  3. Connected-component labeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connected-component_labeling

    Connected-component labeling (CCL), connected-component analysis (CCA), blob extraction, region labeling, blob discovery, or region extraction is an algorithmic application of graph theory, where subsets of connected components are uniquely labeled based on a given heuristic.

  4. Polygonal chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygonal_chain

    The gray polygonal chain connecting the control points is called the control polygon. In computer-aided geometric design, smooth curves are often defined by a list of control points, e.g. in defining Bézier curve segments. When connected together, the control points form a polygonal chain called a control polygon.

  5. Finite strain theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_strain_theory

    The material deformation gradient tensor characterizes the local deformation at a material point with position vector , i.e., deformation at neighbouring points, by transforming (linear transformation) a material line element emanating from that point from the reference configuration to the current or deformed configuration, assuming continuity ...

  6. Arrangement of lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrangement_of_lines

    In geometry, an arrangement of lines is the subdivision of the Euclidean plane formed by a finite set of lines. An arrangement consists of bounded and unbounded convex polygons , the cells of the arrangement, line segments and rays , the edges of the arrangement, and points where two or more lines cross, the vertices of the arrangement.

  7. Bresenham's line algorithm - Wikipedia

    Notice that the points (2,1) and (2,3) are on opposite sides of the line and (,) evaluates to positive or negative. A line splits a plane into halves and the half-plane that has a negative f ( x , y ) {\displaystyle f(x,y)} can be called the negative half-plane, and the other half can be called the positive half-plane.

  8. Shortest path problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortest_path_problem

    Shortest path (A, C, E, D, F) between vertices A and F in the weighted directed graph. In graph theory, the shortest path problem is the problem of finding a path between two vertices (or nodes) in a graph such that the sum of the weights of its constituent edges is minimized.

  9. Whippletree (mechanism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whippletree_(mechanism)

    A set of whippletrees or leader-bars for the two leaders of a four-horse team A whippletree , or whiffletree , [ 1 ] [ 2 ] is a mechanism to distribute force evenly through linkages . It is also referred to as an equalizer , leader bar , or double tree .
