We have developed a fast algorithm to create a variable density poisson disc sampling pattern.
Fig. 2: Variable density poisson disc sampling patterns for different values of $$$\gamma$$$ and different aspect ratios.
Table 1: Run times for generating variable density poisson-disc sampling patterns with the proposed algorithm and the Tulleken algorithm. Time is reported in milliseconds. In all cases, the proposed algorithm is faster by $$$30-50\%$$$.
