C# Class Accord.Math.Geometry.DiscreteCurveEvolution

The Discrete Curve Evolution (DCE) algorithm can be used to simplify contour curves. It can preserve the outline of a shape by preserving its most visually critical points.

The implementation available in the framework has been contributed by Diego Catalano, from the Catalano Framework for Java. The original work has been developed by Dr. Longin Jan Latecki, and has been redistributed under the LGPL with explicit permission from the original author, as long as the following references are acknowledged in derived applications:
