Voronoi diagram

Syntax

Definition

Consider a set of coplanar points For each point in the set you can draw a boundary enclosing all the intermediate points lying closer to than to other points in the set Such a boundary is called a Voronoi polygon, and the set of all Voronoi polygons for a given point set is called a Voronoi diagram.

Description

voronoi(x,y) plots the Voronoi diagram for the points x,y.

voronoi(x,y,TRI) uses the triangulation TRI instead of computing it via delaunay.

h = voronoi(...,'LineSpec') plots the diagram with color and line style specified and returns handles to the line objects created in h.

[vx,vy] = voronoi(...) returns the vertices of the Voronoi edges in vx and vy so that plot(vx,vy,'-',x,y,'.') creates the Voronoi diagram.

Examples

This code plots the Voronoi diagram for 10 randomly generated points.
