Ellipse matching algorithm [HELP]

Правка en7, от sahaun, 2024-05-28 20:04:16

This is not a problem from any online judge, but for a project I am working on.

There is an ellipse and a list of points. The task is to score the list with a number between $$$0$$$ and $$$1$$$. A score of $$$1$$$ means that the list of points forms a perfect ellipse. A list forms a perfect ellipse when:

  1. All the points in the list lie on the circumference of the ellipse.

  2. The points are evenly spaced (distributed evenly) across the circumference.

Formal-ish statement

The expected time complexity is less than $$$O(N^3)$$$, not strictly necessary. Here, $$$N$$$ is the number of points in the list.

If you want some inspiration, I have attempted the same problem but checked matching with circles and polygons. Demonstration for the circle:
