  • Abstract
    An approach to fitting of implicit algebraic curves and surfaces to point data is introduced. Two families of polynomials with bounded zero sets are presented. Members of these families have the same number of degrees of freedom as general polynomials of the same degree. Methods for fitting members of these families of polynomials to measured data points are described. Experimental results for sets of points in R 2 and R3 for curves and surfaces, respectively, are presented
