Here is the deal. I have multiple points (X,Y) that form an ‘ellipse like’ shape.
I would like to evaluate/fit the ‘best’ ellipse possible and get its properties (a,b,F1,F2), or just the center of the ellipse.
Any ideas/leads would be appreciated.
Gilad.
There’s a Matlab function fit_ellipse that can do the job. There’s also this paper on methods for orthogonal distance fitting of ellipses. A web search for orthogonal ellipse fit will probably turn up a lot of other resources as well.
