Purpose
ParamBSpline2 A program to generate a smooth curve from sequential points in n-dimensional data. It can be used to-
-
Smooth a set of data
-
Insert additional points between existing points
-
Reduce the number of data points
-
Obtain estimates at fixed intervals
-
Obtain estimates at specified points.
The program does not suffer from the most common limitations of curve fitting programs. For example:
-
The data values do not need to satisfy a monotonicity requirement. In other words a given X may have more than one Y value. See the illustration below.
-
The closeness of fit is controllable several ways.
-
Ouput spacing is flexible.
-
The program is operating system independent.
An illustration of ParamBSpline2's power is shown below, VariationInFittingParameterS.gif.
