Nov 3, 2014 at 20:08 | comment | added | Alex Degtyarev | Not good: if you don't require convexity or such, minimal area tends to $0$: just take a polygonal neighborhood of a tree. The reason why I keep asking is that, if you give a right definition, the answer would probably be obvious (at least, for a finite set). | |

Nov 3, 2014 at 19:24 | comment | added | janak | It is a polygon which embraces all the points, but has minimal area. | |
Nov 3, 2014 at 19:12 | comment | added | Alex Degtyarev | OK, but what's the definition? Something that would make the red curve better than any other curve? | |
Nov 3, 2014 at 19:07 | comment | added | janak | Suppose we plot the finite set of points on X-Y plane and suppose these points form a cluster. Then by boundary points of the set I mean the boundary point of this cluster of points. That is if we connect these boundary points with piecewise straight line then this graph will enclose all the other points. For example, i.sstatic.net/hwxSW.jpg here points on the red curve are the boundary points. | |
