Abstract: A technique to capture outline of planar objects using two rational cubic functions for approximating the boundary curve, is presented in this paper. Genetic algorithm is utilized to find suitable values of parameters in the description of rational functions. The proposed devised scheme eventually helps construct optimal curve to contours of images of generic shapes.
