Discrete Voronoi diagrams and the SKIZ operator: a dynamic algorithm
Raul E. Sequeira, Francoise J. Preteux · IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence · 1997
The Voronoi diagram (VD) is a popular tool for partitioning the support of an image. An algorithm is presented for constructing VD when the seed set, which determines the Voronoi regions, can be modified by adding and removing seeds. The number of pixels and seeds revisited for updating the diagram and the neighbor relationships among seeds is minimized. A result on cocircular seeds is presented. The adjacency, or dual, graph of the VD is readily obtained. The use of the algorithm for constructing skeletons by influence zones (SKIZ) is demonstrated.
