Abstract
Large survey observations such as the EROS, the MACHO and the OGLE projects have discovered a large number of eclipsing binaries in the extra galaxies and published their light curves. The light curves of the eclipsing binaries provide fundamental stellar parameters so that accumulation of the light curves will be very useful for the research of the stellar astronomy. However it requires a lot of time to analyze the light curves. Therefore we developed new method to analyze the large number of light curves in the relatively short time period and found the photometric solution by analyzing the light curves of 20 eclipsing binaries, whose mass ratio can be determined by photometic method, in the Small Magellan Cloud.
