Abstract—The most common problems which constitute the subject of research in the field of computer-based modeling are to predict the desired shape of the curve for a set of given points. Many approaches and methods were developed for different types of curve and techniques are used for solution of the problem. In this study similarly, Pareto Envelope-based Selection Algorithm (PESA) is proposed for estimated curves. An Application environment which is collected reverse engineering methods and approaches of the algorithm was improved and the node estimation process of B-spline curves is introduced using PESA.

Index Terms—PESA, B-Spline Curve, Approximation,reverse engineering.
