Book Methods of Shape preserving Spline Approximation

Download or read book Methods of Shape preserving Spline Approximation written by Boris I. Kvasov and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2000 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to develop algorithms of shape-preserving spline approximation for curves/surfaces with automatic choice of the tension parameters. The resulting curves/surfaces retain geometric properties of the initial data, such as positivity, monotonicity, convexity, linear and planar sections. The main tools used are generalized tension splines and B-splines. A difference method for constructing tension splines is also developed which permits one to avoid the computation of hyperbolic functions and provides other computational advantages. The algorithms of monotonizing parametrization described improve an adequate representation of the resulting shape-preserving curves/surfaces. Detailed descriptions of algorithms are given, with a strong emphasis on their computer implementation. These algorithms can be applied to solve many problems in computer-aided geometric design.

Book Curve and Surface Fitting with Splines

Download or read book Curve and Surface Fitting with Splines written by Paul Dierckx and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fitting of a curve or surface through a set of observational data is a very frequent problem in different disciplines (mathematics, engineering, medicine, ...) with many interesting applications. This book describes the algorithms and mathematical fundamentals of a widely used software package for data fitting with (tensor product) splines. As such it gives a survey of possibilities and benefits but also of the problems to cope with when approximating with this popular type of function. In particular it is demonstrated in detail how the properties of B-splines can be fully exploited for improving the computational efficiency and for incorporating different boundary or shape preserving constraints. Special attention is also paid to strategies for an automatic and adaptive knot selection with intent to obtain serious data reductions. The practical use of the smoothing software is illustrated with many examples, academic as well as taken from real life.

Book Algorithms for Approximation

Download or read book Algorithms for Approximation written by J.C. Mason and published by Chapman and Hall/CRC. This book was released on 1990-05-15 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume comprises the proceedings of the second Shrivenham conference on Algorithms for Approximation. The term 'approximation' here refers to 'the approximation of functions and data by similar functions', and leads to such topics as curve and surface fitting, spline and piecewise polynomial methods, finite element modelling, and computer-aided design. Applications are given to a wide variety of areas such as surveying, meteorology, radar antenna and acoustic array design, topography, engineering metrology, and CAD/CAM. Emphasis at the meeting was placed on the development of useful algorithms, and on practical applications in defence and industry. In addition, some 40 submitted papers were selected and presented on a multitude of topics such as multivariate interpolation, optimization methods, constrained problems, spline fitting, data modelling, and applications in microwave measurement, isotropic antennas, sound measurement, and digitized contours.

Book Theory and Algorithms for Cubic L1 Splines

Download or read book Theory and Algorithms for Cubic L1 Splines written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In modern geometric modeling, one of the requirements for interpolants is that they 'preserve shape well.' Shape preservation has often been associated with preservation of monotonicity and convexity/concavity. While shape preservation cannot yet be defined quantitatively, it is generally agreed that shape preservation involves eliminating extraneous non-physical oscillation. Classical splines, which exhibit extraneous oscillation, do not 'preserve shape well.' Recently, Lavery introduced a new class of cubic L1 splines. Empirical experiment has shown that cubic L1 splines are cable of providing C1-smooth, shape-preserving, multi-scale interpolation of arbitrary data, including data with abrupt changes in spacing and magnitude, with no need for monotonicity or convexity constraints, node adjustment or other user input. However, the shape-preserving capability of cubic L1 splines has not been proved theoretically. The currently available algorithm only provides an approximation to the coefficients of cubic L1 splines. To lay the groundwork for theoretical analysis and the development of an exact algorithm, this dissertation proposes to treat cubic L1 spline problems in a geometric programming framework. Such a framework leads to a geometric dual problem with a linear objective function and convex quadratic constraints. It also provides a linear system for dual-to-primal conversion. We prove that cubic L1 splines preserve shape well, in particular, in eliminating non-physical oscillations, without review of raw data or any human intervention. We also show that cubic L1 splines perform well for multi-scale data, as well as preserve linearity and convexity/concavity under mild conditions. An exact algorithm based on the geometric programming model is proposed for solving cubic L1 splines. It decomposes the geometric programming problem into several independent small-sized sub-problems and applies a specialized active set algorithm to solve the sub-problems. The alg.

Download or read book Handbook of Splines written by Gheorghe Micula and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to give a comprehensive introduction to the theory of spline functions, together with some applications to various fields, emphasizing the significance of the relationship between the general theory and its applications. At the same time, the goal of the book is also to provide new ma terial on spline function theory, as well as a fresh look at old results, being written for people interested in research, as well as for those who are interested in applications. The theory of spline functions and their applications is a relatively recent field of applied mathematics. In the last 50 years, spline function theory has undergone a won derful development with many new directions appearing during this time. This book has its origins in the wish to adequately describe this development from the notion of 'spline' introduced by 1. J. Schoenberg (1901-1990) in 1946, to the newest recent theories of 'spline wavelets' or 'spline fractals'. Isolated facts about the functions now called 'splines' can be found in the papers of L. Euler, A. Lebesgue, G. Birkhoff, J.

Book Bicubic L1 Spline Fits for 3D Data Approximation

Download or read book Bicubic L1 Spline Fits for 3D Data Approximation written by Muhammad Adib Uz Zaman and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Univariate cubic L1 spline fits have been successful to preserve the shapes of 2D data with abrupt changes. The reason is that the minimization of L1 norm of the data is considered, as opposite to L2 norm. While univariate L1 spline fits for 2D data are discussed by many, bivariate L1 spline fits for 3D data are yet to be fully explored. This thesis aims to develop bicubic L1 spline fits for 3D data approximation. This can be achieved by solving a bi-level optimization problem. One level is bivariate cubic spline interpolation and the other level is L1 error minimization. In the first level, a bicubic interpolated spline surface will be constructed on a rectangular grid with necessary first and second order derivative values estimated by using a 5-point window algorithm for univariate L1 interpolation. In the second level, the absolute error (i.e. L1 norm) will be minimized using an iterative gradient search. This study may be extended to higher dimensional cubic L1 spline fits research.
