Abstract

Given two simple polygons, the Minimal Vertex Nested Polygon Problem is one of finding a polygon nested between the given polygons having the minimum number of vertices. In this paper, we suggest efficient approximate algorithms for interesting special cases of the above using the shortest-path finding graph algorithms.
