(a) Dependence of polynomial order on the fitting quality. The averaged, normalized cross section through the cylinder (along the y axis) is plotted for each polynomial order tested. Order five and six fit the object shape accurately, leaving only minor residuals (<2%) at the edges of the cylinder. (b) shows the dependence of the polynomial order on normalized standard deviation of the curvature corrected cylinder, illustrated by the L-curves.
