Abstract: We present results of an empirical investigation into the performance of two O(nlogn) worst-case optimal Delaunay triangulation algorithms: a divide-andconquer algorithm and a plane-sweep algorithm. We present improvements which give a factor of 4-5 speedup to the divide-and-conquer algorithm and a factor of 13-16 speed-up to the plane-sweep algorithm. Experiments using our improved implementations of both algorithms show the plane-sweep algorithm to be slightly faster (about 20%) than the... (Update)
