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 and/or diagram:

    Our mother gives us our earliest lessons in love—and its partner, hate. Our father—our “second other”Melaborates on them. Offering us an alternative to the mother-baby relationship . . . presenting a masculine model which can supplement and contrast with the feminine. And providing us with further and perhaps quite different meanings of lovable and loving and being loved.
    Judith Viorst (20th century)

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