Efficient Expected-Case Algorithms for Planar Point Location
Planar point location is among the most fundamental search problems in computational geometry. Although this problem has been heavily studied from the perspective of worst-case que...

Nearly Optimal Expected-Case Planar Point Location
We consider the planar point location problem from the perspective of expected search time. We are given a planar polygonal subdivision S and for each polygon of the subdivision t...

Planar Point Location for Large Data Sets: To Seek or Not to Seek
We present an algorithm for external memory planar point location that is both effective and easy to implement. The base algorithm is an external memory variant of the bucket metho...

Online point location in planar arrangements and its applications
Recently, Har-Peled [HP99b] presented a new randomized technique for online construction of the zone of a curve in a planar arrangement of arcs. In this paper, we present several ...

Entropy-preserving cuttings and space-efficient planar point location
Point location is the problem of preprocessing a planar polygonal subdivision S into a data structure in order to determine efficiently the cell of the subdivision that contains a...
