TL;DR: Two efficient algorithms for enclosing a zero of a continuous function that make essential use of inverse cubic interpolation are presented and it is proved that the second algorithm is optimal in a certain family.
Abstract: Two efficient algorithms for enclosing a zero of a continuous function are presented. They are similar to the recent methods, but together with quadratic interpolation they make essential use of inverse cubic interpolation as well. Since asymptotically the inverse cubic interpolation is always chosen by the algorithms, they achieve higher-efficiency indices: 1.6529… for the first algorithm, and 1.6686… for the second one. It is proved that the second algorithm is optimal in a certain family. Numerical experiments show that the two new methods compare well with recent methods, as well as with the efficient solvers of Dekker, Brent, Bus and Dekker, and Le. The second method from the present article has the best behavior of all 12 methods especially when the termination tolerance is small.

TL;DR: In this paper, a general definition of Hermite interpolation is adopted which consists of interpolation of consecutive chains of directional derivatives, and an interpolation formula analogous to that of Newton in one variable is established.
Abstract: We study the problem of Hermite interpolation by polynomials in several variables. A very general definition of Hermite interpolation is adopted which consists of interpolation of consecutive chains of directional derivatives. We discuss the structure and some aspects of poisedness of the Hermite interpolation problem; using the notion of blockwise structure which we introduced in [10], we establish an interpolation formula analogous to that of Newton in one variable and use it to derive an integral remainder formula for a regular Hermite interpolation problem. For Hermite interpolation of degreen of a functionf, the remainder formula is a sum of integrals of certain (n + 1)st directional derivatives off multiplied by simplex spline functions.

TL;DR: A Lagrangian parameter approach to problems of best constrained approximation in Hilbert space is reviewed, which is applied to the problem of interpolation of data in a plane by a cubic spline function which is subject to obstacles.
Abstract: We review a Lagrangian parameter approach to problems of best constrained approximation in Hilbert space. The variable is confined to a closed convex subset of the Hilbert space and is also assumed to satisfy linear equalities. The technique is applied to the problem of interpolation of data in a plane by a cubic spline function which is subject to obstacles. The obstacles may be piecewise cubic polynomials over the original knot set. A characterization result is obtained which is used to develop a Newton-type algorithm for the numerical solution.

TL;DR: The Hermite interpolation problem by bivariate algebraic polynomials is investigated in this paper, where the interpolation parameters are the values of a function and its partial derivatives up to some ordern at the nodesz and the space of the polynomial is π n (R 2 ) := polynoms of total degree≤n.
Abstract: The Hermite interpolation problem by bivariate algebraic polynomials is investigated. The interpolation parameters are the values of a function and its partial derivatives up to some ordern at the nodesz and the space of the polynomials is π n (R 2) := polynomials of total degree≤n. We describe the class of almost-regular Hermite interpolation schemes under some restrictions and give a complete description of perfect singular schemes.

TL;DR: It is shown that if the chosen partitioning of the state space is sufficiently small, the resulting suboptimal controller leads to a stable closed loop system.
Abstract: We consider a class of nonlinear quadratic regulator problems where the system dynamics are affine in the control. It has been shown recently that an optimal feedback control law for this class of problems can be given in terms of the solution of a state dependent algebraic Ricatti equation (ARE) at each instance of time. However, in most practical problems it is not possible to find an analytic solution to the ARE and hence numerical schemes to calculate suboptimal controls are required. In this paper, we consider one such scheme based on cubic basis spline interpolation. It is shown that if the chosen partitioning of the state space is sufficiently small, the resulting suboptimal controller leads to a stable closed loop system.

TL;DR: In this article, the application of cubic Hermitian interpolation based finite element schemes for the time integration of the differential-algebraic system arising in the dual reciprocity boundary element formulation of transient diffusion problems is presented.
Abstract: This paper presents the application of cubic Hermitian interpolation based finite element schemes for the time integration of the differential-algebraic system arising in the dual reciprocity boundary element formulation of transient diffusion problems. Weighted residual procedure is used to obtain the desired recurrence relations. Numerical results presented for three representative problems involving different types of boundary conditions amply demonstrate the high accuracy of the cubic Hermitian schemes.

TL;DR: In a recent lecture at the NATO Advanced Studies Institute as discussed by the authors, the authors tried to acquaint the audience with the very recent progress that has been made in the approximation of functions defined on spheres.
Abstract: The purpose of this lecture at the NATO Advanced Studies Institute was purely expository. I tried to acquaint the audience with the very recent progress that has been made in the approximation of functions defined on spheres. For practical purposes, the sphere of greatest interest would appear to be S2, since it serves as a (flawed) model of the Earth’s surface. There is every reason to believe that the new approximation methods now being developed will be found useful in geological exploration and meteorological modelling, to name just two areas of application.

In this work, a new method-the method of B-spline generatix is proposed, by which interpolation surfaces of C2 continuity can be designed. And, the surface design in mLinufacturing such sa die-machining t ship-building, etc.

TL;DR: In this article, the applicability of cubic pseudosplines is explored via numerical comparison with previously obtained results from the implementation of the quintic ones for ray-optical field evaluations, when the antenna secondary field is calculated by integration of physical-optics-induced currents.
Abstract: A recent study demonstrated the superior stability of quintic pseudosplines, when compared with usual oscillatory series expansions, for global interpolation of numerically defined reflector surfaces presenting critical behavior of their principal curvatures. Although interpolating functions with continuous derivatives up to second order are necessary for ray-optical field evaluations, C-class surface descriptions are sufficient when the antenna secondary field is calculated by integration of physical-optics-induced currents. In this connection, the applicability of cubic pseudosplines is explored via numerical comparison with previously obtained results from the implementation of the quintic ones. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons.

TL;DR: In this paper, two phase unwrapping criteria appropriate to different conditions for voiced speech synthesis are suggested, namely, when the synthesis frame lags the analysis frame by half a frame, the first one, named Criterion A, should be used, which leads to the same unwrapings results when used for both quadratic and cubic interpolation.
Abstract: In this paper, two-phase unwrapping criteria appropriate to different conditions for voiced speech synthesis are suggested. When the synthesis frame lags the analysis frame by half a frame, the first one, named Criterion A, should be used. It leads to the same unwrapping results when it is used for both quadratic and cubic interpolation. In addition, for quadratic interpolation, Criterion A is equivalent to the criterion to minimize the absolute frequency deviation, suggested by Griffin and Lim (1988); for cubic interpolation, it is equivalent to the 'maximally smooth’ criterion, proposed by McAulay and Quatieri (1985). However, when the synthesis frame coincides with the analysis frame, the second criterion, named Criterion B, should be used. It also leads to the same unwrapping results for both interpolation methods. In the second case, simulations using the multi-band excitation (MBE) model to synthesize speech have shown that Criterion B outperforms Criterion A.

TL;DR: The solution presented falls into two parts, the first being the formulation of an abstract simplex mesh that parametrizes the data while the second part presents an interpolation algorithm based on the structure of a simple feed-forward perceptron.
Abstract: In this paper we present a solution to a C/sup 1/ interpolation problem for lower dimensional data in Euclidean space. The solution presented falls into two parts, the first being the formulation of an abstract simplex mesh that parametrizes the data while the second part presents an interpolation algorithm based on the structure of a simple feed-forward perceptron. To emphasise the connection between our approach and classical spline interpolation we choose cubic polynomial activation functions in the neural units of the perceptron.
