cvt_4_movie


cvt_4_movie, a MATLAB code which creates a Centroidal Voronoi Tessellation (CVT) movie in the unit square, with a density function that drives points to the corners;

The action takes place in a square; however, a nonuniform density function is applied, which effectively increases the "weight" of regions in the corners; for this iterative algorithm, the effect of the density function is that many more sample points will come from the corners than from the center. The CVT cells will correspondingly tend to migrate away from the center.
