Thresholds On 2D Random and Quasi-lattices

Left to right: (a) Voronoi diagram (solid lines) and its dual, the Delaunay triangulation (dotted lines), for a Poisson distribution of points, (b) Delaunay triangulation only, (c) Voronoi diagram (black lines) and the covering or line graph (dotted red lines), (d) the Relative Neighborhood Graph (black lines) superimposed on the Delaunay triangulation (black plus grey lines) for the same set of 128 uniformly distributed random points.

Famous quotes containing the word random:

    Man always made, and still makes, grotesque blunders in selecting and measuring forces, taken at random from the heap, but he never made a mistake in the value he set on the whole, which he symbolized as unity and worshipped as God. To this day, his attitude towards it has never changed, though science can no longer give to force a name.
    Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
