Least Squares Fitting of Piecewise Algebraic Curves

A piecewise algebraic curve is defined as the zero contour of a bivariate spline. In this paper, we present a new method for fitting C1 piecewise algebraic curves of degree 2 over type-2 triangulation to the given scattered data. By simultaneously approximating points, associated normals and tangent...
