Abstract

Strong visibility is a generalization of standard visibility, defined with respect to a fixed set of line orientations. We investigate computational properties of this generalized visibility, as well as the related notion of strong convexity, and describe algorithms for the following tasks:

1. Testing the strong visibility of two points in a polygon.

2. Finding the strong convex hull of a point set or polygon.

3. Constructing the strong kernel of a polygon.

4. Identifying the points that are strongly visible from a given point.
