Abstract

Fitting two coaxial cylinders to data is a standard problem incomputational metrology and reverse engineering processes, which also arisesin medical imaging. There are many fitting criteria that can beused. One that is widely used in metrology, for example, isthat of the sum of squared minimal distance. A similarnumerical method is developed to fit two coaxial cylinders inthe general position to 3D data, and numerical examples are given.
