Shape Modification of NURBS Curves Using Genetic Algorithm

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, we propose a new method for shape modification of NURBS curves. For a given NURBS curve, we modify its one or more weights so that the curve passes through the point specified in advance. We convert this into an optimization problem and solve it by genetic algorithm. The experimental results show the feasibility and validity of our method.
