TITLE: EFFICIENT PARALLEL AND DISTRIBUTED ALGORITHMS FOR GIS POLYGON OVERLAY PROCESSING by SATISH PURI Under the Direction of Sushil K. Prasad, PhD ABSTRACT Polygon clipping is one of the complex operations in computational geometry. It is used in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Computer Graphics, and VLSI CAD. For two polygons with n and m vertices, the number of intersections can be O(nm). In this disser- tation, we present the first output-sensitive CREW PRAM algorithm, which can perform polygon clipping in O(logn) time using O(n + k + k0) processors, where n is the number of vertices, k is the number of intersections, and k0 is the additional temporary vertices introduced due to the partitioning of polygons. The current best algorithm by Karinthi, Srinivas, and Almasi does not handle self-intersecting polygons, is not output-sensitive and must employ O(n2) processors to achieve O(logn) time. The second parallel algorithm is an output-sensitive PRAM algorithm based on Greiner-Hormann algorithm with O(logn) time complexity using O(n + k) processors. This is cost-optimal when compared to the time com- plexity of the best-known sequential plane-sweep based algorithm for polygon clipping. For self-intersecting polygons, the time complexity is O(((n+k)lognloglogn)=p) using p ≤ (n+k) processors. In addition to these parallel algorithms, the other main contributions in this dissertation are 1) multi-core and many-core implementation for clipping a pair of polygons and 2) MPI- GIS and Hadoop Topology Suite for distributed polygon overlay using a cluster of nodes. Nvidia GPU and CUDA are used for the many-core implementation. The MPI based system achieves 44X speedup while processing about 600K polygons in two real-world GIS shapefiles 1) USA Detailed Water Bodies and 2) USA Block Group Boundaries) within 20 seconds on a 32-node (8 cores each) IBM iDataPlex cluster interconnected by InfiniBand technology.

The prefix used is from Greek. The Greek term for 5 is Penta, so a 5-sided figure is called a _____________. We can draw figures with as many sides as we want, but most of us don’t remember all that Greek, so when the number is over 12, or if we are talking about a general polygon, many mathematicians call the figure an “n-gon.” So a figure with 46 sides would be called a “46-gon.” Vocabulary – Types of Polygons Regular - ______________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ Irregular – _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ Equiangular - ___________________________________________________________ Equilateral - ____________________________________________________________ Convex - a straight line drawn through a convex polygon crosses at most two sides .

    Representing Whole Slide Cancer Image Features with Hilbert Curves Authors: Erich Bremer, Jonas Almeida, and Joel Saltz Erich Bremer (corresponding author) [email protected] Stony Brook University Biomedical Informatics Jonas Almeida [email protected] National Cancer Institute Division of Cancer Epidemiology & Genetics Joel Saltz [email protected] Stony Brook University Biomedical Informatics Abstract Regions of Interest (ROI) contain morphological features in pathology whole slide images (WSI) are [1] delimited with polygons .​ These polygons are often represented in either a textual notation (with the ​ array of edges) or in a binary mask form. Textual notations have an advantage of human readability and portability, whereas, binary mask representations are more useful as the input and output of feature-extraction pipelines that employ deep learning methodologies. For any given whole slide image, more than a million cellular features can be segmented generating a corresponding number of polygons. The corpus of these segmentations for all processed whole slide images creates various challenges for filtering specific areas of data for use in interactive real-time and multi-scale displays and analysis. Simple range queries of image locations do not scale and, instead, spatial indexing schemes are required. In this paper we propose using Hilbert Curves simultaneously for spatial indexing and as a polygonal ROI [2] representation. This is achieved by using a series of Hilbert Curves ​ creating an efficient and inherently ​ spatially-indexed machine-usable form. The distinctive property of Hilbert curves that enables both mask and polygon delimitation of ROIs is that the elements of the vector extracted ro describe morphological features maintain their relative positions for different scales of the same image.

  • Efficient Clipping of Arbitrary Polygons
    Efficient clipping of arbitrary polygons Günther Greiner Kai Hormann · Abstract Citation Info Clipping 2D polygons is one of the basic routines in computer graphics. In rendering Journal complex 3D images it has to be done several thousand times. Efficient algorithms are ACM Transactions on Graphics therefore very important. We present such an efficient algorithm for clipping arbitrary Volume 2D polygons. The algorithm can handle arbitrary closed polygons, specifically where 17(2), April 1998 the clip and subject polygons may self-intersect. The algorithm is simple and faster Pages than Vatti’s algorithm [11], which was designed for the general case as well. Simple 71–83 modifications allow determination of union and set-theoretic difference of two arbitrary polygons. 1 Introduction Clipping 2D polygons is a fundamental operation in image synthesis. For example, it can be used to render 3D images through hidden surface removal [10], or to distribute the objects of a scene to appropriate processors in a multiprocessor ray tracing system. Several very efficient algorithms are available for special cases: Sutherland and Hodgeman’s algorithm [10] is limited to convex clip polygons. That of Liang and Barsky [5] require that the clip polygon be rectangular. More general algorithms were presented in [1, 6, 8, 9, 13]. They allow concave polygons with holes, but they do not permit self-intersections, which may occur, e.g., by projecting warped quadrilaterals into the plane. For the general case of arbitrary polygons (i.e., neither the clip nor the subject polygon is convex, both polygons may have self-intersections), little is known. To our knowledge, only the Weiler algorithm [12] and Vatti’s algorithm [11] can handle the general case in reasonable time.
