Abstract

Generalized intersection searching problems is a class of problems that constitute an extension of their standard counterparts. In such problems, we are given a set of colored objects and we want to report or count the distinct colors of the objects intersected by a query object. Many solutions have appeared for both iso-oriented and non-iso-oriented objects. We show how to improve the bounds of several generalized intersection searching problems as well as how to obtain upper bounds for some problems not treated before.
