Ok guys, can anyone answer this question. If I have a shape which is very irregular, has lots of curves and non-stright lines but is bounded (ie the 'start' and 'end' points meet) and a point, how can I compute whether that point is inside or outside that shape?
Why is sorting required? The cell can be found in O(n) even if the points are in arbitrary order, can't it?

Hi everybody, i searched for the article describing the O(logd-1 n) time with O(n) space point location solution for rectilinear subdivisions in vein. So if anybody knows who published the paper containing the description, shall please leave the author and the title. Thanks! :) 84.56.215.129 19:51, 28 April 2007 (UTC) M. Heinzmann

hi, I want to know whether any algorithm exists for finding the nearest site for a given query point in a delaunay triangulation of a voronoi diagram . — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shanmugapriyakrishnan (talk • contribs) 09:09, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
