In this paper, a role of corner detection in outline capturing system is studied/discussed, which is normally used as phase 1 of capturing. Three outline capturing techniques are studied, one without involving any corner detection and two techniques with most suited corner detectors. One common curve approximation method, with cubic Bezier curves, is used in all above techniques in order to stu...

In this paper, an efficient algorithm for automatic outline capture of digital character images is presented. This method is well suited for non-Roman languages like Arabic, Urdu, Persian, etc. Contemporary word processing systems store shapes of the characters in terms of their outlines, and outlines are expressed as cubic Bezier curves. The process of capturing outlines includes steps detecti...

This paper describes the design and implementation of a ROM-Less Direct Digital Frequency Synthesizer (DDS) using Bezier curve approximation. With Bezier curve approximation, phase values between 0 to π are mapped to sine amplitudes. Then, half wave symmetry of sine wave is exploited to construct full sine wave. The proposed approximation introduces maximum error of 7.9×10, which is equivalent ...

O. Ismail, Senior Member, IEEE Abstract— Fixed DP curve is a recent representation of the polynomial curves, proposed by Delgado and Pena in 2003. They introduced a new curve representation with linear computational complexity. An algorithmic approach to degree reduction of interval DP curve is presented in this paper. The four fixed Kharitonov's polynomials (four fixed DP curves) associated wi...

Presented paper describes the method for finding the intersection of class space rational Bezier curves. The problem curve/curve intersection belongs among basic geometric problems and the aim of this article is to describe the new technique to solve the problem using relief perspective and Bezier clipping.

In this paper, the smooth path planning problem is considered for a mobile robot based on the genetic algorithm and the Bezier curve. The workspace of a mobile robot is described by a new grid-based representation (2 × 2n grids) that facilitates the operations of the adopted genetic algorithm. The chromosome of the genetic algorithm is composed of a sequence of binary numbered grids (i.e., cont...
