Contour polygonal approximation is usually defined as a set of selected dominant points, which describes a polygon and best represents the original contour. This paper presents a novel algorithm for dominant point detection via suboptimal optimization method. The proposed algorithm does not require an input parameter The experimental results show that this method is efficient, effective, reduces the number of dominant points as compared to other proposed methods.
