The curve could not approximate control polygon satisfactorily by an interactive manner. In order to produce a curve close enough to control polygon at every control vertex, an optimization model is established to minimize the distance between rational B6zier curve and its control points. This optimization problem is converted to a quadratic programming problem by separating and recombining the objective function. The new combined multi-objective optimization problem is reasonable and easy to solve. With an optimal parameter, the computing process is discussed. Comparative examples show that the designed curve is closer to control polygon and preserves the shape of the control polygon well.展开更多
