Is Fortune's algorithms for Voronoi diagrams described anywhere by Prof. Fortune?
One popular algorithm to find the Voronoi diagram out of a collection of points (sites) in the plane is Fortune's algorithm. It is usually described in terms of a sweep line, whose interaction with ...

What edges are not in a Gabriel graph, yet in a Delauney graph?
It is know that the Gabriel graph of a point set $P \subset \mathbb{R}^2$, $\mathcal{GG}(P)$ is a subset of the corresponding Delauney graph $\mathcal{DG}(P)$, i.e. $\mathcal{GG}(P) \subseteq\mathcal{...

Nearest Neighbour search with Kirkpatrick's Hierarchy and Re-Triangulating Delaunay after vertex removal
Ok, so I'm having bit of an issue understanding nearest neighbour search with delaunay triangulation.
In particular, how do I re-triangulate my delaunay triangulations once I introduced holes?
But I ...

Transition from Delaunay triangulation to Voronoi diagram
In mathematics and computational geometry, a Delaunay triangulation for a given set P of discrete points in a plane is a triangulation DT(P) such that no point in P is inside the circumcircle of any ...

Voronoi Diagram Drawing Variations and Charateristics
I am learning about Voronoi diagrams and I have seen that the Voronoi diagram of a set of points is drawn with straight line segments and rays.
Similarly how can we draw the Voronoi diagram for the ...

Can breakpoints of the beachline move up in Fortune's algorithm?
In these slides describing Fortune's algorithm for constructing a Voronoi diagram, it is noted on page 7 that break points of the beach line can move upward. How is this so?
In most of the cases I ...

Delaunay to Voronoi ... and back?
Learning about Voronoi Diagrams, one quickly finds out that Delaunay Triangulations are clearly the easiest way to generate them from a set of points.
How about the other way around? Given a ...
