Definition

template<class Traits, class PointPMap = boost::typed_identity_property_map <typename Traits::Point_2>, class MassPMap = boost::static_property_map <typename Traits::FT>>
class CGAL::Optimal_transportation_reconstruction_2< Traits, PointPMap, MassPMap >

This class provides a means to reconstruct a 1-dimensional shape from a set of 2D points with masses.

The algorithm computes an initial 2D Delaunay triangulation from the input points, and performs a simplification of the triangulation by performing half edge collapses, edge flips and vertex relocations.

The edges are either processed in the order imposed by an priority queue, or in an order based on random selection of edge collapse operators. As the exhaustive priority queue guarantees a higher quality it is the default. The user can switch to the other method, for example for an initial simplification round, by calling set_random_sample_size().

By default edge flip operators are applied to ensure that every edge of the triangulation are candidate to be collapsed, while preserving a valid embedding of the triangulation. This option can be disabled by calling set_use_flip(false) to reduce the running times.

By default the vertices are not relocated after each half edge collapse. This option can be changed by setting the number of vertex relocation steps performed between two edge collapse operators.

The simplification is performed by calling either run_until(n) or run(steps). The former simplifies the triangulation until n points remain, while the latter stops after steps edge collapse operators have been performed. Furthermore, we can relocate the vertices by calling relocate_all_points().

relocate_all_points()

template<class Traits , class PointPMap = boost::typed_identity_property_map <typename Traits::Point_2>, class MassPMap = boost::static_property_map <typename Traits::FT>>

void CGAL::Optimal_transportation_reconstruction_2< Traits, PointPMap, MassPMap >::relocate_all_points

(

)

Since noise and missing data may prevent the reconstructed shape to have sharp corners well located, the algorithm offers the possibility to automatically relocate points after each edge collapse.

The new location of the points is chosen such that the fitting of the output segments to the input points is improved.

run()

template<class Traits , class PointPMap = boost::typed_identity_property_map <typename Traits::Point_2>, class MassPMap = boost::static_property_map <typename Traits::FT>>

bool CGAL::Optimal_transportation_reconstruction_2< Traits, PointPMap, MassPMap >::run

(

const unsigned int

steps

)

Computes a shape, reconstructing the input, by performing steps edge collapse operators on the output simplex.

Parameters

steps

The number of edge collapse operators to be performed.

Returns

true if the required number of steps was performed, false if the algorithm was prematurely ended because no more edge collapse was possible.

run_under_wasserstein_tolerance()

template<class Traits , class PointPMap = boost::typed_identity_property_map <typename Traits::Point_2>, class MassPMap = boost::static_property_map <typename Traits::FT>>

void CGAL::Optimal_transportation_reconstruction_2< Traits, PointPMap, MassPMap >::run_under_wasserstein_tolerance

(

const FT

tolerance

)

Computes a shape, reconstructing the input, by performing edge collapse operators on the output simplex until the user-defined tolerance is reached.

Note

The tolerance is given in the sense of the Wasserstein distance. It is not a Hausdorff tolerance: it does not mean that the distance between the input samples and the output polyline is guaranteed to be less than tolerance. It means that the square root of transport cost per mass (homogeneous to a distance) is at most tolerance.

Parameters

tolerance

Tolerance on the Wasserstein distance.

run_until()

template<class Traits , class PointPMap = boost::typed_identity_property_map <typename Traits::Point_2>, class MassPMap = boost::static_property_map <typename Traits::FT>>

bool CGAL::Optimal_transportation_reconstruction_2< Traits, PointPMap, MassPMap >::run_until

(

std::size_t

np

)

Computes a shape consisting of np points, reconstructing the input points.

Parameters

np	The number of points which will be present in the output.

Returns

true if the number of points np was reached, false if the algorithm was prematurely ended because no more edge collapse was possible.

set_random_sample_size()

template<class Traits , class PointPMap = boost::typed_identity_property_map <typename Traits::Point_2>, class MassPMap = boost::static_property_map <typename Traits::FT>>

void CGAL::Optimal_transportation_reconstruction_2< Traits, PointPMap, MassPMap >::set_random_sample_size

(

std::size_t

sample_size

)

If sample_size == 0, the simplification is performed using an exhaustive priority queue.

If sample_size is stricly positive the simplification is performed using a multiple choice approach, ie, a best-choice selection in a random sample of edge collapse operators, of size sample_size. A typical value for the sample size is 15, but this value must be enlarged when targeting a very coarse simplification.

Parameters

sample_size

If sample_size != 0, the size of the random sample replaces the priority queue.

set_relevance()

template<class Traits , class PointPMap = boost::typed_identity_property_map <typename Traits::Point_2>, class MassPMap = boost::static_property_map <typename Traits::FT>>

void CGAL::Optimal_transportation_reconstruction_2< Traits, PointPMap, MassPMap >::set_relevance

(

const FT

relevance

)

Parameters

relevance

The relevance threshold used for filtering the edges. An edge is relevant from the approximation point of view if it is long, covers a large mass (or equivalently the number of points when all masses are equal), and has a small transport cost. This notion is defined as \( m(e) * |e|^2 / cost(e) \), where \( m(e) \) denotes the mass of the points approximated by the edge, \( |e| \) denotes the edge length and \( cost(e) \) its approximation error. As the cost is defined by mass time squared distance the relevance is unitless.

The default value is 1, so that all edges receiving some mass are considered relevant. Setting a large relevance value is used to get robustness to a large amount of outliers.

set_verbose()

template<class Traits , class PointPMap = boost::typed_identity_property_map <typename Traits::Point_2>, class MassPMap = boost::static_property_map <typename Traits::FT>>

void CGAL::Optimal_transportation_reconstruction_2< Traits, PointPMap, MassPMap >::set_verbose

(

int

verbose

)

Determines how much console output the algorithm generates.

If set to a value larger than 0 details about the reconstruction process are written to std::cerr.

Parameters

verbose

The verbosity level.
