Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for generating a m-degree form in a n-dimension space. A framework is used to generate the form. The framework comprises a defined number of sections, lines and control points depending on the complexity of the form to generate. An iterative solving process is then used in order to provide the algebraic coefficients of the m-degree form using at least data related to the control points.
