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。

当前回答
如果它是一条无限大的直线,而不是一条线段,最简单的方法是这样(在ruby中),其中mx + b是直线,(x1, y1)是已知的点
(y1 - mx1 - b).abs / Math.sqrt(m**2 + 1)
其他回答
这是一个自成体系的Delphi / Pascal版本的函数,基于上面约书亚的答案。使用TPoint用于VCL屏幕图形,但应该易于根据需要进行调整。
function DistancePtToSegment( pt, pt1, pt2: TPoint): double;
var
a, b, c, d: double;
len_sq: double;
param: double;
xx, yy: double;
dx, dy: double;
begin
a := pt.x - pt1.x;
b := pt.y - pt1.y;
c := pt2.x - pt1.x;
d := pt2.y - pt1.y;
len_sq := (c * c) + (d * d);
param := -1;
if (len_sq <> 0) then
begin
param := ((a * c) + (b * d)) / len_sq;
end;
if param < 0 then
begin
xx := pt1.x;
yy := pt1.y;
end
else if param > 1 then
begin
xx := pt2.x;
yy := pt2.y;
end
else begin
xx := pt1.x + param * c;
yy := pt1.y + param * d;
end;
dx := pt.x - xx;
dy := pt.y - yy;
result := sqrt( (dx * dx) + (dy * dy))
end;

如您所见,我试图衡量使用避免Sqrt()方法的版本与使用普通版本之间的差异。我的测试表明你可能可以节省2.5%,但我甚至不确定——各种测试运行中的变化是相同的数量级。我还试着测量了Matti发布的版本(加上一个明显的优化),该版本似乎比基于Katz/Grumdrig代码的版本慢了大约4%。
编辑:顺便说一句,我还尝试过测量一种方法,该方法使用叉乘(和平方根())来查找到无限直线(不是线段)的距离,它大约快32%。
在javascript中使用几何:
var a = { x:20, y:20};//start segment
var b = { x:40, y:30};//end segment
var c = { x:37, y:14};//point
// magnitude from a to c
var ac = Math.sqrt( Math.pow( ( a.x - c.x ), 2 ) + Math.pow( ( a.y - c.y ), 2) );
// magnitude from b to c
var bc = Math.sqrt( Math.pow( ( b.x - c.x ), 2 ) + Math.pow( ( b.y - c.y ), 2 ) );
// magnitude from a to b (base)
var ab = Math.sqrt( Math.pow( ( a.x - b.x ), 2 ) + Math.pow( ( a.y - b.y ), 2 ) );
// perimeter of triangle
var p = ac + bc + ab;
// area of the triangle
var area = Math.sqrt( p/2 * ( p/2 - ac) * ( p/2 - bc ) * ( p/2 - ab ) );
// height of the triangle = distance
var h = ( area * 2 ) / ab;
console.log ("height: " + h);
Consider this modification to Grumdrig's answer above. Many times you'll find that floating point imprecision can cause problems. I'm using doubles in the version below, but you can easily change to floats. The important part is that it uses an epsilon to handle the "slop". In addition, you'll many times want to know WHERE the intersection happened, or if it happened at all. If the returned t is < 0.0 or > 1.0, no collision occurred. However, even if no collision occurred, many times you'll want to know where the closest point on the segment to P is, and thus I use qx and qy to return this location.
