  2. Point location - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_location

    Each triangle has pointers to the triangles it intersects in the next level of the hierarchy, and the number of pointers is also bounded by a constant. We proceed with the query by finding which triangle contains the query point level by level. [5] The data structure is built in the opposite order, that is, bottom-up.

  3. Range minimum query - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_minimum_query

    Range minimum query reduced to the lowest common ancestor problem.. Given an array A[1 … n] of n objects taken from a totally ordered set, such as integers, the range minimum query RMQ A (l,r) =arg min A[k] (with 1 ≤ l ≤ k ≤ r ≤ n) returns the position of the minimal element in the specified sub-array A[l …

  4. Range query (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_query_(computer_science)

    Given a function that accepts an array, a range query (,) on an array = [,..,] takes two indices and and returns the result of when applied to the subarray [, …,].For example, for a function that returns the sum of all values in an array, the range query ⁡ (,) returns the sum of all values in the range [,].

  5. Center of pressure (terrestrial locomotion) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_of_pressure...

    In biomechanics, center of pressure (CoP) is the term given to the point of application of the ground reaction force vector. The ground reaction force vector represents the sum of all forces acting between a physical object and its supporting surface. Analysis of the center of pressure is common in studies on human postural control and gait.

  6. Nested set model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_set_model

    The nested set model is a technique for representing nested set collections (also known as trees or hierarchies) in relational databases.. It is based on Nested Intervals, that "are immune to hierarchy reorganization problem, and allow answering ancestor path hierarchical queries algorithmically — without accessing the stored hierarchy relation".

  7. Predecessor problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predecessor_problem

    Data structures that solve the problem support these operations: [2] predecessor(x), which returns the largest element in S strictly smaller than x; successor(x), which returns the smallest element in S strictly greater than x; In addition, data structures which solve the dynamic version of the problem also support these operations:

  8. Range tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_tree

    A 1-dimensional range tree on a set of n points is a binary search tree, which can be constructed in (⁡) time. Range trees in higher dimensions are constructed recursively by constructing a balanced binary search tree on the first coordinate of the points, and then, for each vertex v in this tree, constructing a (d−1)-dimensional range tree on the points contained in the subtree of v.

  9. Lookup table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lookup_table

    In computer science, a lookup table (LUT) is an array that replaces runtime computation with a simpler array indexing operation, in a process termed as direct addressing.The savings in processing time can be significant, because retrieving a value from memory is often faster than carrying out an "expensive" computation or input/output operation.
