DETECTION OF HIGH CURVATURE REGIONS ON CURVES

A method is provided for detecting regions of high curvature on a curve. The method comprises receiving a curve function and automatically arc length parameterizing the curve function. The local average curvature over the arc length parameterized curve function is automatically computed. One or more...

Zusammenfassung:A method is provided for detecting regions of high curvature on a curve. The method comprises receiving a curve function and automatically arc length parameterizing the curve function. The local average curvature over the arc length parameterized curve function is automatically computed. One or more regions where the local average curvature turns at least a predetermined angle over a given interval are automatically indicated. The indicated regions are then output.
