CCVT_BOX
Animated Constrained CVT Algorithm


CCVT_BOX is a MATLAB program which allows the user to specify certain parameters, and then creates and animates a Centroidal Voronoi Tessellation of points in a 2D box. After each iteration, points near the boundary are projected onto the boundary.

The data that the user may set includes:

Languages:

CCVT_BOX is available in a C++ version and a FORTRAN90 version and a MATLAB version.

Related Data and Programs:

AVI, a data directory which contains an animation of the behavior of the generator points during the iteration, as computed by CCVT_BOX.

CCVT_REFLECT, a MATLAB program which tries to achieve the same results as CCVT_BOX but using a "reflection" idea to force points onto the boundary of the region.

CVT, a MATLAB library which can create CVT's.

CVT, a dataset directory which contains files describing a number of CVT's.

CVT_1D_LLOYD, a MATLAB program which computes an N-point Centroidal Voronoi Tessellation (CVT) within the interval [0,1], under a uniform density.

CVT_1D_SAMPLING, a MATLAB program which computes an N-point Centroidal Voronoi Tessellation (CVT) within the interval [0,1], under a uniform density, using sampling to estimate the Voronoi regions.

CVT_DATASET, a MATLAB program which creates a CVT dataset.

The FORTRAN version of CCVT_BOX was written by Lili Ju.
