abstract = "We analyze the correctness of an O(n log n) time
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.",
