This paper introduces a new method for the naive digital plane recognition problem. As efficient as existing alternatives, it is the only method known to the author that also guarantees a quasi linear time complexity in the worst case. The approach presented can be used to determine if a set of n points is a naive digital hyperplane in Zd in O(n log2 D) worst case time where D represents the size of a bounding box that encloses the points. In addition, the approach succeeds in reducing the naive digital plane recognition problem to a two-dimensional convex optimization program. Thus, the solution space is planar and only simple two-dimensional geometrical methods need to be applied during the recognition process. The algorithm is a composite of simple techniques based on one-dimensional optimization: Megiddo Oracle for linear programming and two-dimensional discrete geometry.
