Convex Decomposition in Mathematical Optimization

Enroll
Convex decomposition involves breaking down a complex shape or object into a set of simpler, non-overlapping convex pieces to simplify analysis and processing, often used in computational geometry and graphics. This technique helps improve computational efficiency and accuracy in tasks such as collision detection, physical simulations, and mesh generation.
