- qn.1 : What is a piece of a region that has been `effected' by a (voronoi) tessellation ?
- Is it called a `tessel' ?
-
- qn.2 : Are there any other type of tesselations or equivalent terms ?
-
- qn.3 : Could someone please give me a few `one-line' examples where voronoi
- tesselations are popularly used. I shall look up further on that.
-
-
- reasons for asking : I want to use the word tessellation to describe a feature
- in my PhD oral exam `report'. I was asked for specific
- reasos for the use of that word. Well, I am a computer engineer, and completely
- lack a math background. I saw an application ( cant think of a better word) of
- the voronoi/dirichlet tessellation in the book Krogh,et al.. on neural networks
- (1991). From the description in that book, I thought it perfectly fitted the
- features I have ...
-
- I would really appreciate it, if U could email me. But such topics would
- be interest to the usenet community in general too, so make Ur own choice...
