| Description | The network Voronoi diagram has been extensively applied in many fields, such as influence area construction, location selection and urban planning, owing to its high accuracy and validity in space division. Taking advantage of parallel processing and auto-wave division of the pulse coupled neural network (PCNN), an algorithm for generating a weighted network Voronoi diagram is proposed in this paper. First, in order to better accommodate the scenes of urban facility points and road networks, the PCNN is improved. Second, the speed of the auto-wave in the improved PCNN is calculated by the weights of the facility points and the attributes of the related road network. Third, the nodes in the road network are considered as neurons, the facility points are projected onto the nearest road segments and the projected points are treated as initial neurons. The initial neurons generate auto-waves simultaneously, and the auto-waves transmit along the shortest path from neurons to other neurons with the calculated speed until all the neurons are fired. During this procedure, the road network and the corresponding space are assigned to the initial neurons and the weighted network Voronoi diagram is constructed. The experiments on the specific region with the real POIs present the feasibility, applicability and efficiency of the algorithm. |
