Toward superrobust geometric computation

Published:02 June 2008Publication History

ABSTRACT

To make geometric computation robust against numerical errors is one of the most important issues for practical applications of geometric algorithms. We first review existing approaches to robust geometric computation, and next show that there still remain many difficulties. Finally we discuss possible directions to overcome these difficulties and thus to achieve superrobustness.
