A Fast Intersection Detection Algorithm for Qualitative Spatial Reasoning
Abstract
In this paper we present a framework for determining the intersection of geometric objects based on the 9-Intersection model used in qualitative spatial reasoning. Triangle-triangle intersection is the computational basis for interaction between 2D/3D objects; hence a fast, robust intersection detection algorithm is beneficial. Additionally, we present efficient predicates for classification of the intersections. This work is applicable for most region connection calculi, particularly, VRCC-3D+, which detects intersections in 3D as well as projections in 2D for occlusion detection.
