It would be a very useful contribution if you could try to make the 
implementation 
Matlab compatible, implementing the triangulation [1] and delaunayTriangulation 
[2]
classes.

You said you are a student, you could consider proposing this as a GSoC project 
[3,4]?

The main reason for that is probably that those classes require classdef, and 
classdef 
implementation is not yet complete in Octave.
