Open publisher page 7 citations

Abstract

A novel method for approximating data points using Bspline curves is proposed.Firstly,the data points are fitted using a B-spline curve with low degree,which is named controlling curve.Secondly,another B-spline curve is finded to approximate the controlling curve,which is named approximating curve.The approach completely avoids the parametrization problem.Futhermore,the approximating curve has a good shape,and the knots are nearly arc-length parametrization.A new placement of knots according to the controlling curve is also proposed.
