In this paper we characterize the isogonal and isotomic conjugates of conic. Every conic can be expressed by a quadratic rational B$\acute{e}$zier curve having control polygon $b_0b_1b_2$ with weight w > 0. We show that the isotomic conjugate of parabola and hyperbola with respect to ${\Delta}b_0b_1b_2$ is ellipse, and that the isotomic conjugate of ellipse with the weight $w={\frac{1}{2}}$ is identical. We also find all cases of the isogonal conjugate of conic with respect to ${\Delta}b_0b_1b_2$. Our characterizations are derived easily due to the expression of conic by the quadratic rational B$\acute{e}$ezier curve in standard form.

In this paper, we present a curve fitting algorithm using a ball curve. Our algorithm is recursive method for fitting, which is not a traditional ball function but a continuous ball function. This algorithm consists of two steps. The first step, it is classified the composite corner points to joint points until selected from the given data set. The second step is the curve fitting. The basis function for curve fitting is use to ball function. Also, the weighted least square method, to insert knot, is an efficient method for piecewise ball curve and ball curve segments will be smoothly connected at all composit points. The proposed algorithm will be applied to represent image representation, like fonts, digital image and GIS.
