Abstract

This paper proposes quadratic log-aesthetic curves that are curves whose logarithmic curvature graphs are quadratic. In previous work, generalized log-aesthetic curves are derived by shifting either the curvature or the radius of curvature of log-aesthetic curves. Quadratic log-aesthetic curves are another generalization of log-aesthetic curves by making logarithmic curvature graphs quadratic. We derive the equations of quadratic log-aesthetic curves and clarify their characteristics. For drawing quadratic log-aesthetic curves, we need to compute the inverses of the error and imaginary error functions. We present a method for computing these inverses and confirm that the curves can be generated in real time.
