What is it about?

Given a set of points sampled resembling a planar curve, this algorithm allows to find a smooth mathematical representation of the resembled curve.

Why is it important?

In many reverse engineering applications, the primary data is a point sample. However, a mathematical smooth representation is needed to express a shape and to execute downstream applications.

Perspectives

This publication allows to sort the different factors that influence a smooth curve fitted to a set of planar points, therefore allowing to obtain a more useful formulation, for engineering, medicine, manufacture, design, etc.
