Approximate Implicitization of Planar Parametric Curves using Quadratic Splines

چکیده
A quadratic Bézier spline with G-continuity is given to approximate a planar parametric curve. In its construction, the parametric curve is first divided into several segments. A rational quadratic Bézier curve is then applied to approximate each segment and recursive subdivision for the segment may be used if the approximation error is out of the given range. With this method, we not only keep the shape but also the direction of the parametric curve with simple computation using quadratic curves. High accuracy of the approximation is also achieved with relatively small number of conics.

متن کاملApproximate µ-Bases of Rational Curves and Surfaces
The μ-bases of rational curves and surfaces are newly developed tools which play an important role in connecting parametric forms and implicit forms of curves and surfaces. However, exact μ-bases may have high degree with complicated rational coefficients and are often hard to compute (especially for surfaces), and sometimes they are not easy to use in geometric modeling and processing applicat...

متن کاملFast Approximate Implicitization of Envelope Curves using Chebyshev Polynomials
Consider a rational family of planar rational curves in a certain region of interest. We are interested in finding an approximation to the implicit representation of the envelope. Since exact implicitization methods tend to be very costly, we employ an adaptation of approximate implicitization to envelope computation. Moreover, by utilizing an orthogonal basis in the construction process, the c...
