چکیده

In this paper, we introduce a novel definition of the anisotropic centroidal Voronoi tessellation (ACVT) corresponding to a given Riemann metric tensor. A directional distance function is used in the definition to simplify the computation. We provide algorithms to approximate the ACVT using the Lloyd iteration and the construction of anisotropic Delaunay triangulation under the given Riemannian metric. The ACVT is applied to the optimization of two-dimensional anisotropic Delaunay triangulation, to the generation of surface CVT, and high-quality triangular mesh on general surfaces. Various numerical examples demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed method are presented.

Centroidal Voronoi Tessellations: Applications and Algorithms

A centroidal Voronoi tessellation is a Voronoi tessellation whose generating points are the centroids (centers of mass) of the corresponding Voronoi regions. We give some applications of such tessellations to problems in image compression, quadrature, finite difference methods, distribution of resources, cellular biology, statistics, and the territorial behavior of animals. We discuss methods f...
