ABSTRACT:
A curve tracing system and method of extracting a smooth curve from a plurality of image data points includes the steps of: partitioning the data points into a plurality of groups each defined by a center point, manipulating the center points into a sequential order, and re-partitioning the data points into a plurality of groups each defined by a center point with the condition that a curve passing through the center points must be smooth.
