ABSTRACT

This paper presents a new method for extending cubic Bézier curve. G² continuity is used to describe the smoothness of joint point and two shape parameters are provided for making the extended curve adjustable. To make the extended part of curve have the desirable shape, two optimal objective functions are established based on the exact minimum energy and the exact minimum curvature variation of the curve, respectively. The shape parameters of the extended segment are determined by minimizing the objective functions. The optimization process is linearized by Newton iterative method. The comparison of the curves with different objective functions is included.
