To be honest, I work very often the other way. It's not "I have this problem, how can I solve it", it is more like "This solution looks cool, what kind of Gimp problem could it solve?". And IIRC Welzl's algorithm (found on WIkipedia) is pretty much the latter. But I admit I must be some kind of science pervert because my Wikipedia surfing often leads me to some rather hardcore engineering/math articles 
Otherwise, asking the question in my favorite search engine (DuckDuckGo, not Google) very often elicits hits on StackOverflow or Wikipedia or both and then either they are the answers or they have usable pointers to answers.
