This example illustrates some properties of splines. Splines are curves, which are usually required to be continuous and smooth. Splines are usually defined as piecewise polynomials of degree n with ...
The missing portions of variables subjected to SPLINE or MSPLINE transformations are handled the same way as for OPSCORE, MONOTONE, UNTIE, and LINEAR transformations (see the previous section). The ...
Rayleigh-Ritz methods for the approximation of the natural modes for a class of vibration problems involving flexible beams with tip bodies using subspaces of piecewise polynomial spline functions are ...
B-Spline curve fitting stands as a cornerstone in the realm of computational geometry, providing a flexible and robust approach to approximating intricate shapes and surfaces. This method relies on ...
The Annals of Statistics, Vol. 17, No. 4 (Dec., 1989), pp. 1567-1596 (30 pages) A data dependent method of estimating a regression function is proposed here. The model is allowed to be heteroscedastic ...
