In this paper, we present the design of hyperboloid structures and techniques for hyperboloid fitting which are based on minimizing the sum of the squares of the geometric distances between the noisy data and the hyperboloid.The literature often uses "orthogonal fitting" in place of "best fitting".For many different purposes, the best-fit hyperboloid fitting to a set of points is required.Algebraic fitting methods solve the linear least squares (LS) problem, and are relatively straightforward and fast.Fitting orthogonal hyperboloid is a difficult issue.Usually, it is impossible to reach a solution with classic LS algorithms.Because they are often faced with the problem of convergence.Therefore, it is necessary to use special algorithms e.g.nonlinear least square algorithms.We propose to use geometric fitting as opposed to algebraic fitting.Hyperboloid has a complex geometry as well as hyperboloid structures have always been interested.The two main reasons, apart from aesthetic considerations, are strength and efficiency.
