Fitting a 3D curve to a set of data points
Hello
I have a set of data points in R^3, which are aligned nearly on a
curve.
What is the best way of fitting (least squares) a curve to these
points. I have no idea...
As an example: a problem which is quite similar to mine: You have
measured several times the position of a space shuttle. Now I want to
reconstruct the trajectory of this shuttle by fitting a curve to my
data points (the points need not lie on a sphere as this example
might suggest).
Thanks for your suggestions
