Least-squares orthogonal distances fitting of circle, sphere, ellipse, hyperbola, and parabola
The least-squares "tting minimizes the squares sum of error-of-"t in prede"ned measures. By the geometric "tting, the error distances are de"ned with the orthogonal, or shortest, distances from the given points to the geometric feature to be "tted. For the geometric "tting of circle/sphere/ellipse/hyperbola/parabola, simple and robust nonparametric algorithms are proposed. These are based on th...
متن کاملEfficient and Exact C-arm Cone-Beam Imaging for Axially Extended Field-of-View using the Ellipse-Line-Ellipse Trajectory
C-arm computed tomography for axially long fieldof-view is an important extension to the current C-arm 3D imaging capability and can be crucial in some intra-operative cases. Recently, a novel data acquisition geometry, i.e., the EllipseLine-Ellipse trajectory, was proposed for this new technique. It has been shown that this trajectory satisfies mechanical motion constraints of a C-arm system a...
متن کاملBallistic missile trajectory prediction using a state transition matrix
A method for the determination of the trajectory of a ballistic missile over a rotating, spherical Earth given only the launch position and impact point has been developed. The iterative solution presented uses a state transition matrix to correct the initial conditions of the ballistic missile state vector based upon deviations from a desired set of final conditions. A six-degree-of-freedom si...
متن کاملMidcourse Trajectory Shaping for Air and Ballistic Defence Guidance Using Bezier Curves
A near-optimal midcourse trajectory shaping guidance algorithm is proposed for both air and ballistic target engagement mission attributes for generic long range interceptor missile. This guidance methodology is based on the maximum final velocity as the objective function and maximum permissible flight altitude as the in-flight state constraint as well as the head-on orientation as the termina...
