dc.description.abstract | Let S be a shape with a polygonal boundary. We show that the boundary of the maximally elongated rectangle R(S) which encases the shape S contains at least one edge of the convex hull of S. Such a nice property enables a computationally efficient construction of R(S). In addition, we define the elongation of a given shape S as the ratio of the length of R(S) (determined by the longer edge of R(S)) and the width of R(S) (determined by the shorter edge of R(S)) and show that a so defined shape elongation measure has several desirable properties. Several examples are given in order to illustrate the behavior of the new elongation measure. As a by-product, of the method developed here, we obtain a new method for the computation of the shape orientation, where the orientation of a given shape S is defined by the direction of the longer edge of R(S). © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
