scipy.spatial.Delaunay

class scipy.spatial.Delaunay(points)

Delaunay tesselation in N dimensions.

Parameters :

points : ndarray of floats, shape (npoints, ndim)

Coordinates of points to triangulate

Notes

The tesselation is computed using the Qhull libary [Qhull].

New in version 0.9.

Attributes

transform Affine transform from x to the barycentric coordinates c.
vertex_to_simplex Lookup array, from a vertex, to some simplex which it is a part of.
convex_hull Vertices of facets forming the convex hull of the point set.
points ndarray of double, shape (npoints, ndim) Points in the triangulation.
vertices ndarray of ints, shape (nsimplex, ndim+1) Indices of vertices forming simplices in the triangulation.
neighbors ndarray of ints, shape (nsimplex, ndim+1) Indices of neighbor simplices for each simplex. The kth neighbor is opposite to the kth vertex. For simplices at the boundary, -1 denotes no neighbor.
equations ndarray of double, shape (nsimplex, ndim+2) [normal, offset] forming the hyperplane equation of the facet on the paraboloid (see [Qhull] documentation for more).
paraboloid_scale, paraboloid_shift float Scale and shift for the extra paraboloid dimension (see [Qhull] documentation for more).

Methods

find_simplex(self, xi[, bruteforce, tol]) Find the simplices containing the given points.
lift_points(self, x) Lift points to the Qhull paraboloid.
plane_distance(self, xi) Compute hyperplane distances to the point xi from all simplices.
