Hi all,
My basic question is this. I have a set of data in 3D space that makes an approximate ellipse ring, with a few bends and noise. Is there an easy way to connect the points in a smooth way to make a nicely connected ring?
I created this simple code to represent what my data may look like.
x = -2:.1:2;
xnoise = (rand(1,81)-0.5)/10;
y = sqrt(1-((x.*x)/4));
ynoise = (rand(1,81)-0.5)/10;
x = [x(1:end-1) flipdim(x,2)];
x = x+xnoise;
y = [-y(1:end-1) y];
y = y+ynoise;
s = 0:2*pi/80:2*pi;
z = sin(s);
znoise = (rand(1,81)-0.5)/10;
z = z+znoise;
plot3(x,y,z,'o')
Keep in mind that my knowledge of Matlab is limited and I would like a solution that can be utilized in coding as opposed a toolbox function. Thanks in advance!
