Thanks for the video! How different does your analysis need to be for a Voronoi Diagram IA to be HL AA Maths?
@MrFlynnIB
@MrFlynnIB 2 жыл бұрын
Technically a 20/20 SL Voronoi Diagram IA should achieve 18/20 in HL. The difference is in the last criterion where you have to use maths that is beyond the SL course and in the HL course in order to achieve 5 or 6 out of 6.

I think there is a good opportunity here to combine it with adjacency tables, Chinese postman problem and/or the travelling salesman problem. I might do a video on this at some point in the future but have a look and see if you can come up with an idea and then let me know.

Hi Mr Flynn, this video is very helpful! I was wondering if there is a way to start with the perpendicular bisectors of the voronoi diagram, find their equation and from there find the sites (I am looking at creating new train stations based on population). Is there such a thing as an inverse voronoi diagram?
@MrFlynnIB

Ya that sounds like an interesting idea. Sure, if you have a straight line you can put in two sites either side of the line but with the same distance.

hi! i was wondering if doing an ia regarding which ice cream shop is the nearest to my house and what is the maximum duration i have before i return back home in order to make sure that the ice cream does not melt is ok? im planning to use voronoi diagram to figure out which ice cream shop and perhaps some calculus to find the said duration of time. i was wondering if i could fit in graph theory somewhere. your reply would be greatly appreciated xx
@MrFlynnIB
@MrFlynnIB 2 жыл бұрын
Are you SL or HL? I would probably suggest to stick with either Voronoi (if SL) or Graph theory (if HL). Hard to get them both in the same paper and keep it concise? Also I would try to improve your aim. To find the closest ice-cream shop, you don't need a Voronoi diagram. You can just calculate the distance. Voronoi diagrams are useful because you can find the closest ice-cream shop to every point on the map, not just one. Also maybe you want to open an ice-cream shop. Voronoi diagrams are useful for that too. For Graph theory, maybe you want to visit every ice-cream shop in town in the shortest time. Something like that.

Thanks for the video. I was planning to do sth similar and found this great video. I do have one question. I was concerned that creating a Voronoi diagram with so many sites would be difficult. but since Geogebra can just create one automatically then how am I going to show my math workings. Shall I calculate all the perpendicular bisectors and construct it on my own?
@MrFlynnIB
@MrFlynnIB 2 жыл бұрын
My advice would be to show your working for one or two perpendicular bisectors, to demonstrate that you understand how it works and then just let Geogebra calculate the rest.

The largest circle would be the one with the largest radius. You can find the radius fairly easily using distance between two points. No systematic way. I would show the working for one and then use your calculator for the others.

Hi, thanks for the video, im coursing the SL maths but don't you think there are very low use of maths, like literally you just have to use 4 formulas or less and that's it. This can align for a 6/6 in use of maths?
@MrFlynnIB
@MrFlynnIB 2 жыл бұрын
To get 6/6, you need the following: 'Relevant mathematics commensurate with the level of the course is used. The mathematics explored is correct. Thorough knowledge and understanding are demonstrated.' Voronoi Diagrams is commensurate with the level of the course. Criterion E isn't just about how many equations you use or how difficult they are. It is about demonstrating understanding throughout the whole IA. It is difficult to get 6/6 with any topic but certainly possible with this topic.

I don't understand the circle and radius part. If this video is an example and we have C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, does it mean that we do a circle for every combination of points that creates a triangle? In the video there is: GFH, but do we later make: GCH,GDF,GDE,GEF,GHI,GFI, etc. for every point and then calculate a radius for each one? And what if a circle comes out to be very big and its center is on the outskirts of city (I am looking for a place to build a store and would like it to be as near the city center as possible) do we just ignore this circle? And if we make a voronoi diagram and then calculate the biggest radius, is there anything more to calculate because it seems a little too easy and too little for 15-20 pages.

@MrFlynnIB 7 ай бұрын
No you only do a circle for each vertex. So in this example, there would only be 7 circles. The circles will go through the 3 closest points (sites) and the vertex will be the centre. Check out my videos on voronoi diagrams. They explain it better. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ea-FhMiQxs7RgGQ.html and kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iNGfaJur0t_ThIE.html

I only have two months for the draft delivery and i recently needed to change the previous topic so i don´t have much time. also noticed that normal distribuiton is on syllabus of AA unlike voronoi wich is in IA Thank you

Both are fine. You can do a Voronoi Diagrams IA even if you are AA. However maybe normal distribution would suit better as you have studied (or will study) the topic.

Hello, I have found your video very useful, and came up with an IA topic - I want to plot a voronoi diagram based on the locations of exotic animal veterinary clinics in my city and in the near vicinity (I have 8 of them). I want to determine which one is the most accessible by public transport by analyzing the number of tram and bus stops in the near vicinity of a given clinic - compare for all of them and see which one has the largest number of stops near it. I also want to determine where the best place for settling would be based on the closest vicinity to 3 clinics (based on the smallest radius circle), and where the most optimal place for a founding of a new clinic would be based on the largest radius circle. However, I fear that the investigation would be too simple, could you give me your insight, please?

@@kan1642 Hi! I am working on my IA on Voronoi diagrams too. One thing I am doing to extend my knowledge and show I can apply it because I do AI SL is, finding an area where there is a lack of whatever you are researching. So for you, you could look at areas where vet clinics are far or unreachable and create a new clinic from the data. This would show a great extent of knowledge as you would have to look at the real-life context of where there is space but you would also have to calculate the mean area, the shape of the new clinic, and, the accessibility by public transport if you are still doing that.
