Delaunay Triangulation - Relationship With The Voronoi Diagram

Relationship With The Voronoi Diagram

The Delaunay triangulation of a discrete point set P in general position corresponds to the dual graph of the Voronoi tessellation for P. Special cases include the existence of three points on a line and four points on circle.

  • The Delaunay triangulation with all the circumcircles and their centers (in red).

  • Connecting the centers of the circumcircles produces the Voronoi diagram (in red).

Famous quotes containing the words relationship with, relationship and/or diagram:

    “When a mother quarrels with a daughter, she has a double dose of unhappiness—hers from the conflict, and empathy with her daughter’s from the conflict with her. Throughout her life a mother retains this special need to maintain a good relationship with her daughter.”
    —Terri Apter (20th century)

    “Artists have a double relationship towards nature: they are her master and her slave at the same time. They are her slave in so far as they must work with means of this world so as to be understood; her master in so far as they subject these means to their higher goals and make them subservient to them.”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    ““God’s fire upon the wane,
    A diagram hung there instead,
    More women born than men.””
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
