Parallel Convex Hull CUDA

1) gHull - http://www.comp.nus.edu.sg/~tants/gHull.html
- They haven't released the source code till now.


- They specifically focus on CUDA.


3) Graham Scan algorithm for convex hull also seemed quite popular for parallelizing
- Chris Harrison's page on the same algorithm is helpful; also has a sequential-version source-code.

4) Mathematica's page on CUDA convex hulls

5) Optimal Multi-Core Convex Hull


6) Doing QuickHull on GPU - NVIDIA research summit poster here
- That's a research paper.
- Source Code: No idea


Among most of the above algorithms I think that QuickHull is the most amenable for parallelization.

  1. Why didn't you mentioned the CUDA HULL algrithm. It achieves up to 40 times acceleration to QuickHull?

  2. Can you please help me getting the Cuda implementation of the quick hull algorithm code if possible?
