TL;DR: This paper addresses two interrelated problems concerning the planar three degree-of-freedom motion of a vehicle, namely, the path planning problem and the guidance problem, and derives a new κ-exponentially stable integral LOS guidance law, capable of eliminating the effect of constant external disturbances for straight-line path following.
Abstract: This paper addresses two interrelated problems concerning the planar three degree-of-freedom motion of a vehicle, namely, the path planning problem and the guidance problem. The monotone cubic Hermite spline interpolation (CHSI) technique by Fritsch and Carlson is employed to design paths that provide the user with better shape control and avoid wiggles and zigzags between the two successive waypoints. The conventional line-of-sight (LOS) guidance law is modified by proposing a time-varying equation for the lookahead distance, which is a function of the cross-track error. This results in a more flexible maneuvering behavior that can contribute to reaching the desired path faster as well as obtaining a diminished oscillatory behavior around the desired path. The guidance system along with a heading controller form a cascaded structure, which is shown to be $\kappa$ -exponentially stable when the control task is to converge to the path produced by the aforementioned CHSI method. In addition, the issue of compensating for the sideslip angle $\beta$ is discussed and a new $\kappa$ -exponentially stable integral LOS guidance law, capable of eliminating the effect of constant external disturbances for straight-line path following, is derived.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a new class of rational cubic fractal interpolation functions, where the associated iterated function system uses rational functions of the form of cubic polynomials involving two shape parameters.
Abstract: Fractal interpolation is a modern technique in approximation theory to fit and analyze scientific data. We develop a new class of $$\mathcal C ^1$$ - rational cubic fractal interpolation functions, where the associated iterated function system uses rational functions of the form $$\frac{p_i(x)}{q_i(x)},$$ where $$p_i(x)$$ and $$q_i(x)$$ are cubic polynomials involving two shape parameters. The rational cubic iterated function system scheme provides an additional freedom over the classical rational cubic interpolants due to the presence of the scaling factors and shape parameters. The classical rational cubic functions are obtained as a special case of the developed fractal interpolants. An upper bound of the uniform error of the rational cubic fractal interpolation function with an original function in $$\mathcal C ^2$$ is deduced for the convergence results. The rational fractal scheme is computationally economical, very much local, moderately local or global depending on the scaling factors and shape parameters. Appropriate restrictions on the scaling factors and shape parameters give sufficient conditions for a shape preserving rational cubic fractal interpolation function so that it is monotonic, positive, and convex if the data set is monotonic, positive, and convex, respectively. A visual illustration of the shape preserving fractal curves is provided to support our theoretical results.

TL;DR: In this article, a cubic spline radial basis function (RBF) interpolation scheme was used to compute European and American option prices under the jump-diffusion model using the RBF interpolation algorithm.
Abstract: This paper will demonstrate how European and American option prices can be computed under the jump-diffusion model using the radial basis function (RBF) interpolation scheme. The RBF interpolation scheme is demonstrated by solving an option pricing formula, a one-dimensional partial integro-differential equation (PIDE). We select the cubic spline radial basis function and adopt a simple numerical algorithm (Briani et al. in Calcolo 44:33–57, 2007) to establish a finite computational range for the improper integral of the PIDE. This algorithm reduces the truncation error of approximating the improper integral. As a result, we are able to achieve a higher approximation accuracy of the integral with the application of any quadrature. Moreover, we a numerical technique termed cubic spline factorisation (Bos and Salkauskas in J Approx Theory 51:81–88, 1987) to solve the inversion of an ill-conditioned RBF interpolant, which is a well-known research problem in the RBF field. Finally, our numerical experiments show that in the European case, our RBF-interpolation solution is second-order accurate for spatial variables, while in the American case, it is second-order accurate for spatial variables and first-order accurate for time variables.

TL;DR: The scheme is based on the usual finite difference scheme to discretize the time derivative while cubic B-spline is used as an interpolation function in the space dimension and is shown to be unconditionally stable using the von Neumann method.
Abstract: In this paper, a numerical method for the solution of a strongly coupled reaction-diffusion system, with suitable initial and Neumann boundary conditions, by using cubic B-spline collocation scheme on a uniform grid is presented. The scheme is based on the usual finite difference scheme to discretize the time derivative while cubic B-spline is used as an interpolation function in the space dimension. The scheme is shown to be unconditionally stable using the von Neumann method. The accuracy of the proposed scheme is demonstrated by applying it on a test problem. The performance of this scheme is shown by computing and error norms for different time levels. The numerical results are found to be in good agreement with known exact solutions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a new C 1 rational cubic spline interpolant of the form cubic/quadratic with three shape parameters to preserve the geometric properties of the given data sets.
Abstract: This study proposes new C 1 rational cubic spline interpolant of the form cubic/quadratic with three shape parameters to preserves the geometric properties of the given data sets. Sufficient conditions for the positivity and data constrained modeling of the rational interpolant are derived on one parameter while the remaining two parameters can further be utilized to change and modify the final shape of the curves. The sufficient conditions ensure the existence of positive and constrained rational interpolant. Several numerical results will be presented to test the capability of the proposed rational interpolant scheme. Comparisons with the existing scheme also have been done. From all numerical results, the new rational cubic spline interpolant gives satisfactory results.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Cubic Spline Super Fractal Interpolation Function (SFIF) is introduced to simulate an object that depicts one structure embedded into another and its approximation properties are investigated.
Abstract: In the present work, the notion of Cubic Spline Super Fractal Interpolation Function (SFIF) is introduced to simulate an object that depicts one structure embedded into another and its approximation properties are investigated. It is shown that, for an equidistant partition points of [x0, xN], the interpolating Cubic Spline SFIF and their derivatives converge respectively to the data generating function y(x) ≡ y(0)(x) and its derivatives y(j)(x) at the rate of h2-j+ϵ(0 < ϵ < 1), j = 0, 1, 2, as the norm h of the partition of [x0, xN] approaches zero. The convergence results for Cubic Spline SFIF found here show that any desired accuracy can be achieved in the approximation of a regular data generating function and its derivatives by a Cubic Spline SFIF and its corresponding derivatives.

TL;DR: By PCS, the Runge function is effectively approximated without causing oscillation, and numerical experiments substantiate the efficacy and accuracy of PCS.
Abstract: The Runge phenomenon illustrates that equidistant polynomial interpolation of the Runge function will cause wild oscillation near the endpoints of the interpolation interval as the order of the interpolation polynomial increases. In this paper, the pseudo inverse cubic spline (PCS) is presented to accurately approximate the Runge function at equidistant interpolation nodes and solve the problem of Runge phenomenon. PCS is constructed by employing the right pseudo inverse to figure out the minimum norm solution of the cubic spline's second-order derivatives. Thus, unlike the traditional cubic splines that additionally rely on endpoint constraints, PCS only employs the information of interpolation nodes. By PCS, the Runge function is effectively approximated without causing oscillation. Numerical experiments substantiate the efficacy and accuracy of PCS.

TL;DR: A novel dynamic time warping based on cubic spline interpolation (SIDTW) to improve the performance and demonstrates that in most cases this approach not only can produce much less singularities and obtain the best warping path with shorter length but also is an alternative version of DTW when time series datasets are not suitable for DTW to be measured.
Abstract: Dynamic time warping (DTW) and derivative dynamic time warping (DDTW) are two robust distance measures for time series, which allows similar shapes to match even if they are out of phase in the time axis In this paper, we propose a novel dynamic time warping based on cubic spline interpolation (SIDTW) to improve the performance The derivative of every point of time series is calculated by cubic spline interpolation and is used to replace the estimated derivatives in DDTW After interpolation we use derivative-based sequences to represent the original time series, which is better to describe the trend of the original time series and more reasonable to warp Meanwhile, we empirically point out that the quality of similarity measure for the three warping methods is nothing to do with the amount of warping We experimentally perform the proposed method and compare with the existing ones, which demonstrates that in most cases our approach not only can produce much less singularities and obtain the best warping path with shorter length but also is an alternative version of DTW when time series datasets are not suitable for DTW to be measured

TL;DR: A novel correction technique employing a cubic spline interpolation is proposed for inter-channel sample -time error compensation and the experimental results showed that the correction technique is effective to attenuate the spurious spurs and improve the dynamic performance of the system.
Abstract: Sample -time errors can greatly degrade the dynamic range of a time-interleaved sampling system . In this paper, a novel correction technique employing a cubic spline interpolation is proposed for inter-channel sample -time error compensation. The cubic spline interpolation compensation filter is developed in the form of a finiteimpulse response (FIR) filter structure. The correction method of the interpolation compensation filter coefficients is deduced. A 4GS/s two-channel, time-interleaved ADC prototype system has been implemented to evaluate the performance of the technique. The experimental results showed that the correction technique is effective to attenuate the spurious spurs and improve the dynamic performance of the system.
