Abstract

This paper is an extension of the already published paper by Voss and Suesse [11]. In that paper, wedeveloped a new region-based fitting method using the method of normalization. There we demonstrated the zero-parametric fitting of lines, triangles, parallelograms, circles, and ellipses. In the present paper, we discuss this normalization idea for fitting of closed regions using circular segments, elliptical segments, and super-ellipses. As features, we use the area-based low order moments. We show that we have to solve only one-dimensional optimization problems in these cases.
