Least squares fitting of planes to surfaces using dynamic programming

Dynamic programming has recently been used by Stone, by Bellman and by Gluss to determine the closest fit of broken line segments to a curve in an interval under the constraint that the number of segments is fixed. In the present … Brian Gluss
