The root tree * contains the complete space.</p> * <p>The main use of such partitions is to use a boolean attribute to * define an inside/outside property, hence representing arbitrary * polytopes (line segments in 1D, polygons in 2D and polyhedrons in * 3D) and to operate on them.</p> * <p>Another example would be to represent Voronoi tesselations, the * attribute of each cell holding the defining point of the cell.</p> * <p>The application-defined attributes are shared among copied * instances and propagated to split parts. These attributes are not * used by the BSP-tree algorithms themselves, so the application can * use them for any purpose. Since the tree visiting method holds * internal and leaf nodes differently, it is possible to use * different classes for internal nodes attributes and leaf nodes * attributes.
