Abstract
Approximation of piecewise linear polylines with circle arcs is an important problem. The approximation is used for polyline compression, noise filtering, feature detection, and inspection of mechanical parts [1-5]. A new accurate and fast iterative method of polyline approximation with a circle arc is described in the paper.
