Please report any documentation bug you may discover to the - Inria Forge bug tracker: - https://gforge.inria.fr/tracker/?atid=13845&group_id=52&func=browse - - o 2D Periodic Triangulations (new package) - - This package allows to build and handle triangulations of point sets in - the two dimensional flat torus. Triangulations are built incrementally - and can be modified by insertion or removal of vertices. They offer - point location facilities. The package provides Delaunay triangulations - and offers nearest neighbor queries and primitives to build the dual - Voronoi diagrams. + This package implements the segmentation of triangulated surface meshes + based on the Shape Diameter Function (SDF). In addition, it also provides + functions to generate segmentations based on a user defined alternative to + the SDF. See http://www.cgal.org/releases.html for a complete list of changes.
