We present a parametric method to carry out a demodulation process in complex fringe pattern images with either open or closed fringes; this method is based on the parallel demodulation algorithm and introduces a novel way, to the best of our knowledge, to approximate the phase map using the Bezier surface control points. For this study, a recently developed population meta-heuristic called Variable Mesh Optimization is introduced to implement the optimization process. The results of the proposed method improve the phase error and the run time scores in comparison with other global optimization algorithms, which address this type of problem.
