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.

Evidence for sediment recirculation on an ebb-tidal delta of the East Frisian barrier-island system, southern North Sea

TL;DR: The Otzum ebb-tidal delta, located between Langeoog and Spiekeroog islands along the East Frisian barrier-island coast, southern North Sea, was investigated with respect to its morphological evolution, sediment distribution patterns and internal sedimentary structures as mentioned in this paper.

Counter-streaming flows in a giant quiet-Sun filament observed in the extreme ultraviolet

TL;DR: In this article, the authors detect counter-streaming flows in the filament, which are visible in the time-lapse movies in all four examined AIA wavelength bands ( λ 171 Å, λ 193 Θ, Θ and λ 304 � ) for all wavelength bands.

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.
