abstract = "A convex hull of points in E2 is used in many applications. In
spite of low computational complexity O(h log\n ) it takes
considerable time if large data processing is needed. We present a
new algorithm to speed up any planar convex hull calculation. It
is based on a polar space subdivision and speed up known convex
hull algorithms of 3,7 times and more. The algorithm estimates the
central point using 10% of the data; this point is taken as the
origin for the polar subdivision. The space subdivision enables a
fast and very efficient reduction of the given points, which
cannot contribute to the final convex hull. The proposed algorithm
iteratively approximates the convex hull, leaving only a small
number of points for the final processing, which is performed
using a standard algorithm. Non-eliminated points are then
processed by a selected standard convex hull algorithm. The
algorithm is simple and easy to implement. Experiments proved
numerical robustness as well.",
