                         divide-and-conquer algorithm for the convex hull problem when each 
                         input point is a location determined by a normal distribution. We 
                         show that the algorithm finds the convex hull of such 
                         probabilistic points to precision within some expected correctness 
                         determined by a user-given confidence value phi. In order to 
                         precisely explain how correct the resulting structure is, we 
                         introduce a new certificate error model for calculating and 
                         understanding approximate geometric error based on the fundamental 
                         properties of a geometric structure. We show that this new error 
                         model implies correctness under a robust statistical error model, 
                         in which each point lies within the hull with probability at least 
                         phi, for the convex hull problem.",
