title = "Curve fitting with NURBS using simulated annealing",
abstract = "The global optimization strategy of Simulated Annealing is applied to the optimization of knot parameters of NURBS for curve fitting, the objective being the reduction of fitting error to obtain a smooth curve. This is accomplished by using a unit weight vector and a fixed number of control points calculated using the least squares technique, while the sum of squared errors is taken as the objective function.",
