Efficient Terrain Triangulation and Modification Algorithms for Game Applications

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computer Games Technology, 2008
An efficient terrain generation algorithm is developed, based on constrained conforming Delaunay triangulation. The density of triangulation in different regions of a terrain is determined by its flatness, as seen from a height map, and a control map ...

Computing 2D Constrained Delaunay Triangulation Using the GPU [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 2012
We propose the first graphics processing unit (GPU) solution to compute the 2D constrained Delaunay triangulation (CDT) of a planar straight line graph (PSLG) consisting of points and edges. There are many existing CPU algorithms to solve the CDT problem in computational geometry, yet there has been no prior approach to solve this problem efficiently ...

Good triangulations yield good tours [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Consider the following heuristic for planar Euclidean instances of the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP): select a subset of the edges which induces a planar graph, and solve either the TSP or its graphical relaxation on that graph. In this paper, we give

Splitting a Delaunay Triangulation in Linear Time [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Computing the Delaunay triangulation of n points requires usually a minimum of (n log n) operations, but in some special cases where some additional knowledge is provided, faster algorithms can be designed.

Parallel constrained Delaunay triangulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper we propose a new GPU method able to compute the 2D constrained Delaunay triangulation of a planar straight line graph consisting of points and segments. The method is based on an incremental insertion, taking special care to avoid conflicts

Recognizing Linear Building Patterns in Topographic Data by Using Two New Indices based on Delaunay Triangulation

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020
Building pattern recognition is fundamental to a wide range of downstream applications, such as urban landscape evaluation, social analyses, and map generalization. Although many studies have been conducted, there is still a lack of satisfactory results,

Defining Geographical Rating Territories in Auto Insurance Regulation by Spatially Constrained Clustering

open access: yesRisks, 2019
Territory design and analysis using geographical loss cost are a key aspect in auto insurance rate regulation. The major objective of this work is to study the design of geographical rating territories by maximizing the within-group homogeneity, as well ...

Planning-oriented optimization strategy for visualizing power distribution networks: from global to local

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth, 2021
The spatial distribution of power facilities is uneven, thereby making the topology of geographical wiring diagrams (GWDs) based on the actual coordinates unclear. A single-line diagram has the advantage of a clear topology but it lacks spatial locations.
