computational geometry

Noun

 * 1)  A field of study, within computer science, devoted to algorithms that solve problems formulated in geometric terms.
 * 2) * 1991, Herbert Edelsbrunner, Lines in Space—A Collection of Results, Jacob E. Goodman, Richard D. Pollack, William L. Steiger (editors), Discrete and Computational Geometry: Papers from the Special Year,, , page 77,
 * In computational geometry it is a truism that problems in three-dimensional space, $$\mathbb R^3$$, are significantly more difficult and complex than the corresponding problems in the two-dimensional plane, $$\mathbb R^2$$.
 * 1) * 2003, Ren-Hong Wang, Multivariate Spline and Geometry, Ren-Hong Wang (editor), Computational Geometry,, International Press, page 195,
 * In this survey, we will be concerned with the relationship between multivariate splines and geometries including computational geometry, differential geometry, and algebraic geometry.
