We revisit a new type of a Voronoi diagram, in which distance is measured from a point to a pair of points. We consider a few more such distance functions, based on geometric primitives, and analyze the structure and complexity of the…

Voronoi diagrams appear in many areas in science and technology and have numerous applications. They have been the subject of extensive investigation during the last decades. Roughly speaking, they are a certain decomposition of a given…

In this paper, we propose to compute Voronoi diagrams over mesh surfaces driven by an arbitrary geodesic distance solver, assuming that the input is a triangle mesh as well as a collection of sites $P=\{p_i\}_{i=1}^m$ on the surface. We…

We investigate the classes of functions whose minimization diagrams can be approximated efficiently in \Re^d. We present a general framework and a data-structure that can be used to approximate the minimization diagram of such functions.…

Given a set of $n$ sites from $\mathbb{R}^d$, each having some positive weight factor, the Multiplicatively Weighted Voronoi Diagram is a subdivision of space that associates each cell to the site whose weighted Euclidean distance is…

Navigating topological transitions in cellular mechanical systems is a significant challenge for existing simulation methods. While abstract models lack predictive capabilities at the cellular level, explicit network representations…

Minimization diagrams encompass a large class of diagrams of interest in the literature, such as generalized Voronoi diagrams. We develop an abstract perturbation theory and perform a sensitivity analysis for functions depending on sets…

The Voronoi diagram is a geometric object which is widely used in many areas. Recently it has been shown that under mild conditions Voronoi diagrams have a certain continuity property: small perturbations of the sites yield small…

A Voronoi diagram is a basic geometric structure that partitions the space into regions associated with a given set of sites, such that all points in a region are closer to the corresponding site than to all other sites. While being…

Poisson Voronoi diagrams are useful for modeling and describing various natural patterns and for generating random lattices. Although this particular space tessellation is intensively studied by mathematicians, in two- and three dimensional…

The Voronoi diagram of a finite set of objects is a fundamental geometric structure that subdivides the embedding space into regions, each region consisting of the points that are closer to a given object than to the others. We may define…

In this thesis we study sets of points in the plane and their Voronoi diagrams, in particular when the points coincide. We bring together two ways of studying point sets that have received a lot of attention in recent years: Voronoi…

The round-trip distance function on a geographic network (such as a road network, flight network, or utility distribution grid) defines the "distance" from a single vertex to a pair of vertices as the minimum length tour visiting all three…

Real complex networks are often characterized by spatial constraints such as the relative position and adjacency of nodes. The present work describes how Voronoi tessellations of the space where the network is embedded provide not only a…

Since the Voronoi diagram appears in many applications, the topic of improving its computational efficiency remains attractive. We propose a novel yet efficient method to compute Voronoi diagrams bounded by a given domain, i.e., the clipped…

We describe a new algorithm for computing the Voronoi diagram of a set of $n$ points in constant-dimensional Euclidean space. The running time of our algorithm is $O(f \log n \log \Delta)$ where $f$ is the output complexity of the Voronoi…

We propose a self-improving algorithm for computing Voronoi diagrams under a given convex distance function with constant description complexity. The $n$ input points are drawn from a hidden mixture of product distributions; we are only…

I present a regression algorithm that provides a continuous, piecewise-smooth function approximating scattered data. It is based on composing and blending linear functions over Voronoi cells, and it scales to high dimensions. The algorithm…

Let $P$ be a simple polygon with $n$ vertices. For any two points in $P$, the geodesic distance between them is the length of the shortest path that connects them among all paths contained in $P$. Given a set $S$ of $m$ sites being a subset…

The Voronoi diagram-based dual-front active contour models are known as a powerful and efficient way for addressing the image segmentation and domain partitioning problems. In the basic formulation of the dual-front models, the evolving…
