%X Global convergent hybrid method is presented for computing the minimum distance between a point and a plane parametric curve. First, it uses a first order geometric iteration method. If iterative parametric value satisfied local Newton convergence condition and convergence in appropriate area, then turning to Newton iteration method. This hybrid method¡¯s sensitivity to the choice of initial values is nonexistence. Experimental results show that the algorithms under consideration are robust and efficient.
