Bayesian Free-Knot Monotone Cubic Spline Regression

This article proposes a new Bayesian approach for monotone curve fitting based on the isotonic regression model. The unknown monotone regression function is approximated by a cubic spline and the constraints are represented by the intersection of quadratic cones. We treat the number and locations of knots as free parameters and use reversible jump Markov chain Monte Carlo to obtain posterior samples of knot configurations. Given the number and locations of the knots, second-order cone programming is used to estimate the remaining parameters. Simulation results suggest the method performs well and we illustrate the approach using the ASA car data.

The Rounded Cubic Spline

A modification to the conventional spline interpolation methodsis suggested. The new method results in a function which iscontinuous in all higher-order derivatives. This results usuallyin a higher precision as is shown in many examples. The disadvantages are, however, the need of a high precisioncomputer and also the extra computer time involved.     

Cubic Spline Prewavelets on the Four-Directional Mesh

Dedicated to Professor M. J. D. Powell on the occasion of his sixty-fifth birthday and his retirement. In this paper, we design differentiable, two-dimensional, piecewise polynomial cubic prewavelets of particularly small compact support. They are given in closed form, and provide stable, orthogonal decompositions of L ² (R ² ) . In particular, the splines we use in our prewavelet constructions give rise to stable bases of spline spaces that contain all cubic polynomials, whereas the more familiar box spline constructions cannot reproduce all cubic polynomials, unless resorting to a box spline of higher polynomial degree.

On the Parametric Cubic Spline Approach for Solving Second Order Boundary Value Problems

In this article some comments on the paper “parametric cubic spline approach to the solution of a system of second order boundary value problems” in (Khan and Aziz, J. Optim. Theory Appl. 118:45–54, 2003) are given. This paper concerns with a numerical method for solving a second order boundary value problem associated with obstacle, unilateral and contact problems. Corrections are given for the convergence analysis of the numerical method and the computational experiments.     

一类三角域上的三次样条插值(英文)

In this paper, we consider spaces of cubic C^1-spline on a class of triangulations. By using the inductive algorithm, the posed Lagrange interpolation sets are constructed for cubic spline space. It is shown that the class of triangulations considered in this paper are nonsingular for S1/3 spaces. Moreover, the dimensions of those spaces exactly equal to L. L. Schuraaker＇s low bounds of the dimensions. At the end of this paper, we present an approach to construct triangulations from any scattered planar points, which ensures that the obtained triangulations for S1/3 space are nonsingular.     

Interpolating Cubic Spline Wavelet Packet on Arbitrary Partitions

In many applications, the splines on an arbitrary partition are very useful. In this paper, a spline wavelet structure is created in the way that it provides a multiresolution approximation of the spline subspaces with arbitrary partition in the space of continuous functions on a finite interval. Based on the wavelet basis and the wavelet packet in this structure, a multi-level interpolation method is developed for decomposing a function into wavelet series and reconstructing it from its wavelet representation.

Constrained interpolation using rational Cubic Spline with linear denominators

In this paper, a rational cubic interpolant spline with linear denominator has been constructed, and it is used to constrain interpolation curves to be bounded in the given region. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the interpolant to satisfy the constraint have been developed. The existence conditions are computationally efficient and easy to apply. Finally, the approximation properties have been studied.     

A Cubic Spline Technique for the One Dimensional Heat Conduction Equation

A cubic spline approximation to the heat conduction equationis shown to correspond to a special case of a finite-differencescheme considered by Saul'yev. The spline approximation producesat each time level a spline function which may be used to obtainthe solution at any point in the range of the space variable.     

An Analysis of Two Algorithms for Shape-Preserving Cubic Spline Interpolation

The use of polynomial splines as a basis for the interpolationof discrete data can be theoretically justified by a minimumprinciple. It is natural to apply this principle also if shapepreserving is added as a constraint, although the constructionprocess is then nonlinear. We discuss two algorithms for theconstruction of the cubic spline interpolant under the constraintof positivity or monotonicity, and give a detailed convergenceanalysis. Numerical tests illustrate that analysis.     

Cubic Spline Data Reduction Choosing the Knots from a Third Derivative Criterion

This paper presents a data reduction method for functional data. Starting with noisy or not noisy data, we first define a function f, called the reference function, as a cubic smoothing spline which is supposed to have the global form of the data. This reference function is then used to locate the knots of the final approximating spline by using a criterion based on the third derivative of f. Then, the least-squares spline approximating all the data is derived with these knots. Numerical results show the effectiveness of the method.     

Bivariate C1 Cubic Spline Spaces Over Even Stratified Triangulations

It is well-known that the basic properties of a bivariate spline space such as dimension and approximation order depend on the geometric structure of the partition. The dependence of geometric structure results in the fact that the dimension of a C ¹ cubic spline space over an arbitrary triangulation becomes a well-known open problem. In this paper, by employing a new group of smoothness conditions and conformality conditions, we determine the dimension of bivariate C ¹ cubic spline spaces over a so-called even stratified triangulation.
