DOWNSIZE BY TAKING ONLY CRITICAL POINTS¶
Reduces a curve to its critical points only (local minima, maxima, and inflection points), discarding intermediate data points to produce a compact representation. Use this worker to downsample dense time-history or signal curves while preserving their essential shape and turning points.
When to use¶
Classification: process.
Tagged: critical_points, curve_reduction, downsample, inflection, maxima, minima, signal_simplification.
Inputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Curve 1 | curve1 | vector | — | Input curve (x/y vector pair) to be reduced; supply any dense time-history, force-displacement, or signal curve — the worker will extract only its critical points. |
Outputs¶
| Label | ID | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| curve_critical_output_1 | curve_critical_output_1 | vector | Reduced output curve containing only the critical points (local minima, maxima, and inflection points) of the input curve, as an x/y vector pair. |
