Abstract in another language
The visible-volume function assigns to a configuration of cameras
and a flexible environment in a convex room the volume that can be
supervised by the cameras. It is of interest to configure the
cameras and the environment in such a way that the visible volume is
maximized. Some methods of global optimization can take profit from
desirable analytic properties of the visible-volume function.
Earlier work has only considered this function in dimensions two and
three or for static environments implicitly defined by level-set
functions. In this paper it is shown, that the visible-volume
function for a flexible environment modeled explicitly by a
parametrized simplicial complex is continuous, piecewise rational,
locally Lipschitz, and semi-algebraic in all dimensions.
