Title
Approximate implicitization of planar curves by piecewise rational approximation of the distance function
Abstract
We present an approximate implicitization method for planar curves. The computed implicit representation is a piecewise rational approximation of the distance function to the given parametric curve.The proposed method consists of four main steps: quadratic B-spline approximation of the given parametric curve, data reduction, segments-wise implicitization, multiplying with suitable polynomial factors. These segments are joined such that the collection generate a global C r spline function which approximates the distance function, for r = 0, 1.
