A computer-implemented method to improve the point collection process during registration of a bone for a computer-assisted surgical procedure is provided. Based on bone digitization data, a simulation is performed to confirm the accuracy of the registration for different digitization regions. Results are tested to identify which digitization regions meet a predefined accuracy requirement. The resulting information is used to perform a computer-assisted surgical procedure. A computerized simulation method for registration of a bone for a computer-assisted surgical procedure is also provided based on processor executing random stroking an expected exposed surface of a bone model with multiple of stroke curves to cover most of the bone model surface with uniform noise and a random sample consensus is applied to remove outlying point to yield the best registration results, to find the top subset as to overlap. A method to perform computer-assisted surgery is also provided.
