In Caenorhabditis elegans, the recent advances in high-throughput quantitative analyses of natural genetic and phenotypic variation have led to a wealth of data on genotype phenotype relations. This data has resulted in the discovery of genes with major allelic effects and insights in the effect of natural genetic variation on a whole range of complex traits as well as how this variation is dis...

We show through experiments that their effective use results in smaller (in the number of tetrahedra) triangulations than the output of the traditional circumcenter refinement methods.
