Is there a way or a script to smooth out convex corners only, not concave corners, of a closed curve

I need to smooth out only convex corners of a shape fast without selecting all corners manually and smooth them out. Is there a simple way to do that? I use a script called "Round Any Corner" which smooth out all corners of a shape, not only the convex ones. Thank you in advance.

This is not a complete solution to your problem. But for selecting convex points or internal points I have a script called CornersSelector. And then you can round the selected points by type as you like.

1. Copy path
2. Paste in Front
3. Round Corners
4. Select both paths
5. Pathfinder palette: Intersect

 

One could also create a graphic style that combines the steps with a single click.
