A way of studying cooperative behaviour of biological entities (proteins, cells, etc.) is by using topographical analysis: the quantification of the spatial patterns formed by the entities considered as points. Five methods of topographical analysis were compared in terms of discriminant power, stab

## Abstract Given a spatial point pattern, we use various characteristics of its Voronoi diagram and Delaunay tessellation to extract information of the dependence between points. In particular, we use the characteristics to construct statistics for testing complete spatial randomness. It is shown
Analysis of the spatial distributions of objects is fundamental to biomedical image interpretation. Nearest-neighbor (NN) methods are generally used to assess whether objects are arranged at random or in a deterministic manner. Simple standard NN techniques, however, may fail to identify complex spa
