May 24, 2018 at 12:38 | comment | added | Quartz | I meant that the boundary issue is a problem with implementing properly Poisson Ball sampling, additional to the avoidance of balls among themselves; somehow the two distances - radial and orthogonal - don't mix well together. QMC simply focuses on orthogonal well-distribution which by itself can grant some degree of "diagonal" well-distribution, some (but not the simplest) methods further avoid diagonal clumping by more coherent means. Consider e.g. random points each in a different grid's cell: 2 neighbors might still risk vicinity, as a set there's uniform distribution and good avoidance. | |
