Rectilinear Steiner Minimal Trees
Note: I'm not the original author of this library. I wasn't able to find the source of the original library, and wanted to update it, adding tests, making it work in browser and adding typescript support.
A library to obtain Rectilinear Steiner Minimal Trees.
For more info on the problem that this solves, check Rectilinear Steiner tree. This library implements a fast algorithm that provides exact (ie: minimal) solutions.
Usage
To use it, just do:
import rsmt from `rsmt-ts`
const nodes = [[0, 0], [1, 2], [4, 1], ...]
const solution = await rsmt(nodes)
/*
solution = {
terminals: [[0, 0], [1, 2], [4, 1], ...],
steiners: [[0, 1], ...],
edges: [[[0, 0], [0, 1]], ...],
edgeIds: [[1, -1], ...]
}
*/
Methods
Method | Description |
---|---|
rsmt (default) | Returns terminals, steiners and edges (note: edges seem to have issues, see resolution) |
mst | Compute edges of minimum spanning tree |
getEdges | Returns all edges between all points |
Acknowledgements
This library is a reimplementation of the algorithms used in GeoSteiner, based on the paper "A New Exact Algorithm for Rectilinear Steiner Trees" (David M. Warme, 1997).
We also make use of an emscripten build of glpk, named glpk.js.
Thank you to Glue Digital who did the original npm module.
