Tangent Weight

#include <CGAL/Weights/tangent_weights.h>

This weight is computed as \(w = 2 \frac{t_1 + t_2}{d}\), where \(t_1 = \frac{2 A_1}{d d_1 + D_1}\) and \(t_2 = \frac{2 A_2}{d d_2 + D_2}\) with notations shown in the figure below and dot products

\(D_1 = (p_0 - q) \cdot (p_1 - q)\) and \(D_2 = (p_1 - q) \cdot (p_2 - q)\).

Here, q is a query point and the points p0, p1, and p2 are its neighbors.

Alternative formulations are explained in Implementation.

Figure 105.1 Notation used for the tangent weight.

Alternative Formulations

• This weight is equal to the Mean Value Weight.
• This weight is a special case of the Three Point Family Weight.
