Delaunay triangulation

URL copied Share URL
  1. [geometry, data architecture] A technique for creating a mesh of contiguous, nonoverlapping triangles from a dataset of points. Each triangle's circumscribing circle contains no points from the dataset in its interior. Delaunay triangulation is named for the Russian mathematician Boris Nikolaevich Delaunay (1890 – 1980).
