alphahull-package {alphahull}R Documentation

Generalization of the convex hull of a sample of points in the plane

Description

This package computes the α-shape and α-convex hull of a given sample of points in the plane. The concepts of α-shape and α-convex hull generalize the definition of the convex hull of a finite set of points. The programming is based on the duality between the Voronoi diagram and Delaunay triangulation. The package also includes a function that returns the Delaunay mesh of a given sample of points and its dual Voronoi diagram in one single object.
