Abstract
A now method of piece-wise linear functional approximation of planar curves is introduced. This method is baaed on an adaptive segmentation procedure that alleviates the need for segment number estimation and error norm minimization. It is shown that this approach results in a higher computational efficiency than existing methods with comparable accuracyKeywords
