Iterative Scheme for Solving Optimal Transportation Problems Arising in Reflector Design

Table 3

Results of the final iteration of the “Iterative Refinement” Scheme 6 with different values of the nearest neighbor search depth . All other data used was the same as in Table 2. Note that the nearest neighbor search depth has a large influence on the size of the LP problem but relatively little influence on the errors or run times. Column labels are identical to Table 2 except for the first column.
