A metrics for ‘Point-Ellipse’ distance evaluation in 2D

EasyChair Preprint no. 337

Abstract

This document proposes a method to define the distance between a set of points and an ellipse, which can
be used as cost function of a Genetic Algorithm - or any other kind of solvers - to solve the ellipse fitting
problem. This method involves a metrics to retrieve the correct polygon edge to be compared with each
point of the set, featuring linear time complexity.
