Abstract

A fast algorithm for convex hull of the planar points is presented.The algorithm firstly makes the discrete points sorted in scan manner,construct the initial convex hull,then add the rest of the discrete points to the convex hull which has been created and generate a new convex hull.Experiments show that the algorithm has a good efficiency.
