A Comparison of Plane Sweep Delaunay Triangulation Algorithms
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a survey as well as a new sweep-circle algorithm, on plane sweep algorithms for computing the Delaunay triangulation. The algorithms examined are: Fortune’s sweep-line algorithm, Zalik’s sweep-line algorithm, and a sweep-circle algorithm proposed by Adam, Kauffmann, Schmitt, and Spehner. We test implementations of these algorithms on a number of uniform and none-uniform distributed sites. We also analyze the major high-level primitives that algorithms use and do an experimental analysis of how often implementations of these algorithms perform each operation.

Plane-Sweep Incremental Algorithm: Computing Delaunay Tessellations of Large Datasets
We present the plane-sweep incremental algorithm, a hybrid approach for computing Delaunay tessellations of large point sets whose size exceeds the computer’s main memory. This approach unites the simplicity of the incremental algorithms with the comparatively low memory requirements of plane-sweep approaches. The procedure is to first sort the point set along the first principal component and ...
متن کاملA faster circle-sweep Delaunay triangulation algorithm
This paper presents a new way to compute the Delaunay triangulation of a planar set P of n points, using sweep-circle technique combined with the standard recursive edge-flipping. The algorithm sweeps the plane by an increasing circle whose center is a fixed point in the convex hull of P . Empirical results and comparisons show that it reduces the number of in-circle tests and edge-flips, and i...
متن کاملEecient Minimum Spanning Tree Construction without Delaunay Triangulation
Minimum spanning tree problem is a very important problem in VLSI CAD. Given n points in a plane, a minimum spanning tree is a set of edges which connects all the points and has a minimum total length. A naive approach enumerates edges on all pairs of points and takes at least (n 2) time. More eecient approaches nd a minimum spanning tree only among edges in the Delaunay triangulation of the po...
متن کاملS-hull: a fast radial sweep-hull routine for Delaunay triangulation
A new O(nlog(n)) algorithm is presented for performing Delaunay triangulation of sets of 2D points. The novel component of the algorithm is a radially propagating sweep-hull (sequentially created from the radially sorted set of 2D points, giving a non-overlapping triangulation), paired with a final triangle flipping step to give the Delaunay triangluation. In empirical tests the algorithm runs ...
متن کاملConstrained Delaunay Triangulation using Plane Subdivision
This paper presents an algorithm for obtaining a constrained Delaunay triangulation from a given planar graph. The main advantage towards other algorithms is that I use an efficient Žalik’s algorithm, using a plane subdivison for obtaining a Delaunay triangulation. It is used for insertion of points into existing triangulation. The other part of algorithm presents a method for inserting edges, ...
