An Introduction to Splines for Use in Computer Graphics and Geometric Modeling
TL;DR: This paper presents an Explicity Formulation for Cubic Beta-splines, a simple Approximation technique for Uniform Cubic B-spline Surfaces, and discusses its applications in Rendering and Evaluation and simulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hierarchical B-spline refinement
TL;DR: This work presents a method of localizing the effect of refinement through the use of overlays, which are hierarchically controlled subdivisions, and introduces two editing techniques that are effective when using overlays.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Interpolating splines with local tension, continuity, and bias control
TL;DR: This paper presents a new method for using cubic interpolating splines in a key frame animation system which produces a very general class of interpolating cubic splines which includes the cardinal splines as a proper subset.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface fitting with hierarchical splines
TL;DR: This work considers the fitting of tensor product parametric spline surfaces to gridded data and uses a hierarchical representation for the surface to improve efficiency and adaptively decompose the fitting process into subproblems involving only a portion of the data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Minimization Techniques for Piecewise Differentiable Functions: The l_1 Solution to an Overdetermined Linear System
TL;DR: The function $\phi $ is directly minimized in a finite number of steps using techniques borrowed from Conn’s approach toward minimizing piecewise differentiable functions.
