This is the second post (here’s the first one) about an approach to introducing the derivative to calculus students that is counter to what I’ve seen in textbooks and other traditional treatments of ...

Asymptotically exact and conservative confidence bands are obtained for a nonparametric regression function, using piecewise constant and piecewise linear spline estimation, respectively. Compared to ...

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 ...

This paper is concerned with the problem of existence of monotone and/or convex splines, having degree $n$ and order of continuity $k$, which interpolate to a set of ...

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 ...

SPLINE is a transformation. It takes a variable as input and produces a transformed variable as output. Internally, with SPLINE, a B-spline basis is used to find the transformation, which is a linear ...
