An Efficient, Practical Algorithm and Implementation for Computing Multiplicatively Weighted Voronoi Diagrams

Authors: Martin Held and Stefan de Lorenzo

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 173, 28th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2020)


Abstract
We present a simple wavefront-like approach for computing multiplicatively weighted Voronoi diagrams of points and straight-line segments in the Euclidean plane. If the input sites may be assumed to be randomly weighted points then the use of a so-called overlay arrangement [Har-Peled & Raichel, Discrete Comput. Geom. 53:547 - 568, 2015] allows to achieve an expected runtime complexity of 𝒪(n log⁴ n), while still maintaining the simplicity of our approach. We implemented the full algorithm for weighted points as input sites, based on CGAL. The results of an experimental evaluation of our implementation suggest 𝒪(n log² n) as a practical bound on the runtime. Our algorithm can be extended to handle also additive weights in addition to multiplicative weights, and it yields a truly simple 𝒪(n log n) solution for solving the one-dimensional version of this problem.

CG Challenge
Computing Low-Cost Convex Partitions for Planar Point Sets Based on Tailored Decompositions (CG Challenge)

Authors: Günther Eder, Martin Held, Stefan de Lorenzo, and Peter Palfrader

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 164, 36th International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2020)


Abstract
Our work on minimum convex decompositions is based on two key components: (1) different strategies for computing initial decompositions, partly adapted to the characteristics of the input data, and (2) local optimizations for reducing the number of convex faces of a decomposition. We discuss our main heuristics and show how they helped to reduce the face count.
