STABLE SOLUTION OF TIME DOMAIN INTEGRAL EQUATION METHODS USING QUADRATIC B-SPLINE TEMPORAL BASIS FUNCTIONS

This paper is concerned with stable solutions of time domain integral equation （TDIE） methods for transient scattering problems with 3D conducting objects. We use the quadratic B-spline function as temporal basis functions, which permits both the induced currents and induced charges to be properly approximated in terms of completeness. Because the B-spline function has the least support width among all polynomial basis functions of the same order, the resulting system matrices seem to be the sparsest. The TDIE formula-tions using induced electric polarizations as unknown function are adopted and justified. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed approach is accurate and efficient, and no late-time instability is observed.     

Numerical control of kohonen neural network for scattered data approximation

Surface reconstruction from scattered data using Kohonen neural network is presented in this paper. The network produces a topologically predefined grid from the unordered data which can be applied as a rough approximation of the input set or as a base surface for further process. The quality and computing time of the approximation can be controlled by numerical parameters. As a further application, ruled surface is produced from a set of unordered lines by the network.

广义变系数模型的Bayesian B样条估计

提出了广义变系数模型函数系数的一种新的估计方法．我们用B样条函数逼近函数系数,不具体选择节点的个数,而是节点个数取均匀的无信息先验,样条函数系数取正态先验,用Bayesian模型平均的方法估计各个函数系数．这种估计方法一个主要特点是允许各个函数系数所需节点个数的后验分布不同,因此允许不同函数系数使用不同的光滑参数．另外,本文还给出了Bayesian B样条估计的计算方法,并通过模拟例子,说明广义变系数模型的函数系数可以由Bayesian B样条估计方法得到很好的估计．

Asymptotics of Huber-Dutter Estimators for Partial Linear Model with Nonstochastic Designs

For partial linear model Y=X~τβ_0 _(g0)(T) εwith unknown β_0∈R~d and an unknown smooth function go, this paper considers the Huber-Dutter estimators of β_0, scale σfor the errors and the function go respectively, in which the smoothing B-spline function is used. Under some regular conditions, it is shown that the Huber-Dutter estimators of β_0 and σare asymptotically normal with convergence rate n~((-1)/2) and the B-spline Huber-Dutter estimator of go achieves the optimal convergence rate in nonparametric regression. A simulation study demonstrates that the Huber-Dutter estimator of β_0 is competitive with its M-estimator without scale parameter and the ordinary least square estimator. An example is presented after the simulation study.     

几种基于散乱数据拟合的局部插值方法

本文首先针对散乱数据拟合的Shepard方法,结合截断多项式、B样条基函数和指数函数来构造其权函数,使新的权函数具有更高的光滑度和更好的衰减性,并且其光滑性和衰减性可以根据实际需要自由调节,从而提高了曲面的拟合质量．同时还给出一种类似的局部插值方法．另外,本文还基于多重二次插值,结合多元样条的思想,给出了两个局部插值算法．该算法较好地继承了多重二次插值曲面的性质,从而保证了拟合曲面具有好地光顺性和拟合精度．曲面整体也具有较高的光滑性．     

Optimally Stable Multivariate Bases

We show that the tensor product B-spline basis and the triangular Bernstein basis are in some sense best conditioned among all nonnegative bases for the spaces of tensor product splines and multivariate polynomials, respectively. We also introduce some new condition numbers which are analogs of component-wise condition numbers for linear systems introduced by Skeel.

Pseudoaffinity, de Boor algorithm, and blossoms

In order to ensure existence of a de Boor algorithm (hence of a B-spline basis) in a given spline space with (n+1)-dimensional sections, it is important to be able to generate each spline by restriction to the diagonal of a symmetric function of n variables supposed to be pseudoaffine w.r. to each variable. We proved that a way to obtain these three properties (symmetry, n-pseudoaffinity, diagonal property) is to suppose the existence of blossoms on the set of admissible n-tuples, given that blossoms are defined in a geometric way by means of intersections of osculating flats. In the present paper, we examine the converse: do symmetry, n-pseudoaffinity, and diagonal property imply existence of blossoms?     

Products of B-patches

Products and tensor products of multivariate polynomials in B-patch form are viewed as linear combinations of higher degree B-patches. Univariate B-spline segments and certain regions of simplex splines are examples of B-patches. A recursive scheme for transforming tensor product B-patch representations into B-patch representations of more variables is presented. The scheme can also be applied for transforming ann-fold product of B-patch expansions into a B-patch expansion of higher degree. Degree raising formulas are obtained as special cases. The scheme calculates the blossom of the (tensor) product surface and generalizes the pyramidal recursive scheme for B-patches.
