摘要
We present a dynamic focusing algorithm for the segmentation of plane curves into straight lines and circular arcs. The algorithm holds one end of a curve fixed and scans it from the other until it focuses on a segment which fits either a straight line or a circular are. This segment is identified and the process is repeated in the same way for the rest of the curve. It is a very simple and versatile technique and works well on all types of curves regardless of the degree of curvature smoothness.
