Hi Cheng,
I am not sure how to do this but I do have some suggestions.
You can refer to the package called DiscreteMath`ComputationalGeometry` to
graph neighborhoods of points, if you will.
Refer to the package Statistics`NormalDistribution` to setup Gaussian
distributions. You can use the following to generate a Gaussian distributed
random number:
ndist = NormalDistribution[0, 1]; rand:=Random[ndist].
To generate points just invoke the following ...
pts:={rand,rand}
