    Hi,

    I have a computer program which comes up with 'n' points representing
    a closed polygon (contour) based on various factors.

    The object which the contour or polygon represents is more or less
    circular in nature. My program sometimes returns shapes which are
    completely non-circular.

    Question:

    Is there a way to come up with a curvature term so that these 'n'
    points (x,y) would form more or less a circular shape?

    The idea here is to insert this "curvature" term in my program so that
    the result I get, the 'n' points, would represent more or less a
    circle and not any arbid shape.

    Not sure if I have explained my problem well.

    Thanks in advance,
    Tejas
