In this paper, we propose a new interpolation technique using exponential B-spline, which is super-set of the Bspline. An interpolation kernel of exponential B-spline was proposed using IIR based technique by Unser. As another approach, this paper presents an exponential B-spline interpolation kernel using simple mathematics based on Fourier approximation. A high signal to noise ratio can be ac...

To de ne spline subdivision schemes for general compact sets we use the representation of spline subdivision schemes in terms of repeated averages and replace the usual average convex combination by a binary averaging operation between two compact sets introduced in and termed here the metric average These schemes are shown to converge in the Hausdor metric and to provide O h approximation x In...

Non-linear Fisher’s equations are solved by using a spline method based on B-spline in the space direction and finite difference schema in the time direction. Numerical results reveal that spline method based on Bspline is implemented and effective.

Non-parametric modeling is a method which relies heavily on data and motivated by the smoothness properties in estimating a function which involves spline and non-spline approaches. Spline approach consists of regression spline and smoothing spline. Regression spline with Bayesian approach is considered in the first step of a two-step method in estimating the structural parameters for stochasti...

Surface blending is a useful operation in geometric design for rounding sharp edges or corners. Meanwhile, NURBS has already become the de facto industrial standard in existing CAD/CAM systems. Therefore, it is required to study how to blend two B-spline surfaces. However, two arbitrary B-spline surfaces (called base surfaces) are hard to be blended with a B-spline surface (called blending surf...

An algorithm is presented that constructs a C 2-continuous B-spline quaternion curve which interpolates a given sequence of unit quaternions on the rotation group SO(3). The de Casteljau type construction method of B-spline curves can be extended to generate B-spline quaternion curves Sch92]; however, the B-spline quaternion curves do not have C 2-continuity in SO(3). The authors KKS94a] recent...

PH curves; B-spline curves; Nodal points; CNC interpolators; Variable feedrate control; Contour error. Abstract This paper presents a C2 Pythagorean-Hodograph (PH) spline curve interpolator for high speed contouring applications. With the knot vector and control points given, the C2 PH quintic spline curve is a ‘‘good’’ interpolant to the nodal points of the cubic B-spline curve, with the same ...

Abstract Hermit crabs (Paguroidea; Latreille 1802) offer great opportunities to study animal behaviour and physiology. However, the animals’ size sex cannot be determined when they are inside their shell; information crucial many experimental designs. Here, we tested effects of two most common procedures used make leave shells: heating shell apex cracking with a bench press. We compared each on...

Generalized cardinal Hermite spline interpolation is considered. A special case of this problem is the classical cardinal Hermite spline interpolation with shifted nodes. By means of a corresponding symbol new representations of the cardinal Hermite fundamental splines can be given. Furthermore, a new efficient algorithm for the computation of the cardinal Hermite spline interpolant is obtained...

Non-uniform B-spline dictionaries on a compact interval are discussed in the context of sparse signal representation. For each given partition, dictionaries of B-spline functions for the corresponding spline space are built up by dividing the partition into subpartitions and joining together the bases for the concomitant subspaces. The resulting slightly redundant dictionaries are composed of B...
