MATLAB: Apply interpolation technique to complete missing points

cubicdigital image processingimage processingImage Processing Toolboxinterpolationspline

Hi All ,
I have an image of some points and i want to apply the interpolation technique between these points to make a circluar shape. but i dont know how i can apply different interpolation techniques . can anyone help me to aur any suggestion that how i can interpolate data between these points. here i have attached the image

There's no way with those few points to get all the little wiggles in the boundary that you want. The best you can do is to compute the boundary of the convex hull of the points using bwconvhull() followed by bwperim(). Only other way would be to overfit the coordinates with a polynomial or spline but there is no guarantee that those are any more accurate than the convex hull.
