We re-examine the notion of relative (p, ε)-approximations, recently introduced in [CKMS06], and establish upper bounds on their size, in general range spaces of finite VC-dimension, using the…
Relative (p,epsilon)-Approximations in Geometry

The notion of relative $(p,\eps)$-approximations is re-examine, recently introduced in [CKMS06], and upper bounds on their size are established, in general range spaces of finite VC-dimension, using the sampling theory developed in [LLS01] and in several earlier studies.

- Mathematics
- 2014
Given a set P of n points in R3, we show that, for any ε > 0, there exists an ε-net of P for halfspace ranges, of size O(1/ε). We give five proofs of this result, which are arguably simpler than…

It is shown that, for any $\varepsilon >0$, there exists an $\vARpsilon-net of $P$ for halfspace ranges, of size $O(1/\varpsilon)$, and five proofs of this result are given.
Semialgebraic Range Reporting and Emptiness Searching with Applications
- Computer ScienceSIAM J. Comput.
- 2011
The analysis is extended to general semialgebraic ranges and shown how to adapt Matousek's technique without the need to linearize the ranges into a higher-dimensional space, which yields more efficient solutions to several useful problems.
Approximate Halfspace Range Counting
- Computer ScienceSIAM J. Comput.
- 2010
We present a simple scheme extending the shallow partitioning data structures of Matousek, which supports efficient approximate halfspace range-counting queries in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with relative error…
On Geometric Range Searching, Approximate Counting and Depth Problems
- Computer Science
- 2008
This thesis obtains the first optimal data structure for approximate halfspace range counting in 3D and provides two nontrivial methods to approximate the simplicial depth of a given point in higher dimension.
On Finding Rank Regret Representatives
- Computer ScienceACM Trans. Database Syst.
- 2022
The rank-regret representative is proposed as the minimal subset of the data containing at least one of the top-k of any possible ranking function, which is polynomial time solvable in two-dimensional space but is NP-hard on three or more dimensions.
Optimal Deterministic Algorithms for 2-d and 3-d Shallow Cuttings
- Computer ScienceDiscrete & Computational Geometry

An optimal deterministic algorithm for constructing standard (non-shallow) cuttings in two dimensions, which is arguably simpler than the known optimal algorithms by Matoušek and Chazelle.
Output-Sensitive Tools for Range Searching in Higher Dimensions
- MathematicsArXiv
- 2013
The construction of Har-Peled and Sharir [HS11] is extended to three and higher dimensions, to obtain a data structure for halfspace range counting, which uses O(nloglogn) space (and somewhat higher preprocessing cost), and answers a query in half space range counting.
