我需要一个基本函数来求点到线段的最短距离。你可以随意用任何你想要的语言来编写解决方案;我可以把它翻译成什么我正在使用(Javascript)。

编辑:线段由两个端点定义。线段AB由两点A (x1,y1)和B (x2,y2)定义。我要求的是这条线段到点C (x3,y3)的距离。我的几何技能生疏了,所以我看到的例子让我很困惑,我很遗憾地承认。

  else  return false end

上面的函数在垂直线上不起作用。这是一个工作正常的函数! 与点p1 p2相交。CheckPoint为p;

public float DistanceOfPointToLine2(PointF p1, PointF p2, PointF p)
{
  //          (y1-y2)x + (x2-x1)y + (x1y2-x2y1)
  //d(P,L) = --------------------------------
  //         sqrt( (x2-x1)pow2 + (y2-y1)pow2 )

  double ch = (p1.Y - p2.Y) * p.X + (p2.X - p1.X) * p.Y + (p1.X * p2.Y - p2.X * p1.Y);
  double del = Math.Sqrt(Math.Pow(p2.X - p1.X, 2) + Math.Pow(p2.Y - p1.Y, 2));
  double d = ch / del;
  return (float)d;
}

用Matlab直接实现Grumdrig

function ans=distP2S(px,py,vx,vy,wx,wy)
% [px py vx vy wx wy]
  t=( (px-vx)*(wx-vx)+(py-vy)*(wy-vy) )/idist(vx,wx,vy,wy)^2;
  [idist(px,vx,py,vy) idist(px,vx+t*(wx-vx),py,vy+t*(wy-vy)) idist(px,wx,py,wy) ];
  ans(1+(t>0)+(t>1)); % <0 0<=t<=1 t>1     
 end

function d=idist(a,b,c,d)
 d=abs(a-b+1i*(c-d));
end

我需要一个Godot (GDscript)的实现,所以我写了一个基于grumdrig接受的答案:

func minimum_distance(v: Vector2, w: Vector2, p: Vector2):
    # Return minimum distance between line segment vw and point p
    var l2: float = (v - w).length_squared()  # i.e. |w-v|^2 -  avoid a sqrt
    if l2 == 0.0:
        return p.distance_to(v) # v == w case

    # Consider the line extending the segment, parameterized as v + t (w - v).
    # We find projection of point p onto the line.
    # It falls where t = [(p-v) . (w-v)] / |w-v|^2
    # We clamp t from [0,1] to handle points outside the segment vw.
    var t: float = max(0, min(1, (p - v).dot(w - v) / l2))
    var projection: Vector2 = v + t * (w - v)  # Projection falls on the segment
    
    return p.distance_to(projection)

一个2D和3D的解决方案

考虑基底的变化,使得线段变成(0,0,0)-(d, 0,0)和点(u, v, 0)。在这个平面上,最短的距离由

    u ≤ 0 -> d(A, C)
0 ≤ u ≤ d -> |v|
d ≤ u     -> d(B, C)

(到其中一个端点或到支撑线的距离,取决于到该线的投影。等距轨迹由两个半圆和两条线段组成。)

式中,d为AB线段的长度,u、v分别为AB/d (AB方向的单位矢量)与AC的标量积和外积的模量。

AB.AC ≤ 0             -> |AC|
    0 ≤ AB.AC ≤ AB²   -> |ABxAC|/|AB|
          AB² ≤ AB.AC -> |BC|

基于Joshua Javascript的AutoHotkeys版本:

plDist(x, y, x1, y1, x2, y2) {
    A:= x - x1
    B:= y - y1
    C:= x2 - x1
    D:= y2 - y1

    dot:= A*C + B*D
    sqLen:= C*C + D*D
    param:= dot / sqLen

    if (param < 0 || ((x1 = x2) && (y1 = y2))) {
        xx:= x1
        yy:= y1
    } else if (param > 1) {
        xx:= x2
        yy:= y2
    } else {
        xx:= x1 + param*C
        yy:= y1 + param*D
    }

    dx:= x - xx
    dy:= y - yy

    return sqrt(dx*dx + dy*dy)
}
