Two algorithms for constructing a Delaunay triangulation

TLDR
This paper provides a unified discussion of the Delaunay triangulation and two algorithms are presented for constructing the triangulations over a planar set ofN points.
Abstract
This paper provides a unified discussion of the Delaunay triangulation. Its geometric properties are reviewed and several applications are discussed. Two algorithms are presented for constructing the triangulation over a planar set ofN points. The first algorithm uses a divide-and-conquer approach. It runs inO(N logN) time, which is asymptotically optimal. The second algorithm is iterative and requiresO(N 2) time in the worst case. However, its average case performance is comparable to that of the first algorithm.

Relaxation Methods for Constrained Matrix Factorization Problems: Solving the Phase Mapping Problem in Materials Discovery

TL;DR: A novel “lazy” Iterative Agile Factor Decomposition (IAFD) approach that relaxes and postpones non-convex constraint sets (the lazy constraints), iteratively enforcing them when violations are detected, while still ensuring fast run times.

Augmenting GPS IWV estimations using spatio-temporal cloud distribution extracted from satellite data.

TL;DR: A new strategy for augmenting integrated water vapor (IWV) estimations using both remote sensing satellites and global positioning system (GPS) tropospheric path delays is suggested, which improves the accuracy of estimated regional IWV maps, in comparison with radiosonde data.

Closest-point problems

TL;DR: The purpose of this paper is to introduce a single geometric structure, called the Voronoi diagram, which can be constructed rapidly and contains all of the relevant proximity information in only linear space, and is used to obtain O(N log N) algorithms for most of the problems considered.
