Ellipse-preserving Hermite interpolation and subdivision
We introduce a family of piecewise-exponential functions that have the
Hermite interpolation property. Our design is motivated by the search for an
effective scheme for the joint interpolation of points and associated tangents
on a curve with the ability to perfectly reproduce ellipses. We prove that the
proposed Hermite functions form a Riesz basis and that they reproduce
prescribed exponential polynomials. We present a method based on Green's
functions to unravel their multi-resolution and approximation-theoretic
properties. Finally, we derive the corresponding vector and scalar subdivision
schemes, which lend themselves to a fast implementation. The proposed vector
scheme is interpolatory and level-dependent, but its asymptotic behaviour is
the same as the classical cubic Hermite spline algorithm. The same convergence
properties---i.e., fourth order of approximation---are hence ensured
Dual Hermite subdivision schemes of de Rham-type
International audienceThough a Hermite subdivision scheme is non-stationary by nature, its non-stationarity can be of two types, making useful the distinction between Inherently Stationary and Inherently Non-Stationary Hermite subdivision schemes. This paper focuses on the class of inherently stationary, dual non-interpolatory Hermite subdivision schemes that can be obtained from known Hermite interpolatory ones, by applying a generalization of the de Rham corner cutting strategy. Exploiting specific tools for the analysis of inherently stationary Hermite subdivision schemes we show that, giving up the interpolation condition, the smoothness of the associated basic limit function can be increased by one, while its support width is only enlarged by one. To accomplish the analysis of de Rham-type Hermite subdivision schemes two new theoretical results are derived and the new notion of HC-convergence is introduced. It allows the construction of Hermite-type subdivision schemes of order d + 1 with the first element of the vector valued limit function having regularity ≥ d
Beyond B-splines: Exponential pseudo-splines and subdivision schemes reproducing exponential polynomials
The main goal of this paper is to present some generalizations of polynomial B-splines, which include exponential B-splines and the larger family of exponential pseudo-splines. We especially focus on their connections to subdivision schemes. In addition, we generalize a well-known result on the approximation order of exponential pseudo-splines, providing conditions to establish the approximation order of nonstationary subdivision schemes reproducing spaces of exponential polynomial function
Multivariate orthonormal interpolating scaling vectors
AbstractIn this paper we introduce an algorithm for the construction of interpolating scaling vectors on Rd with compact support and orthonormal integer translates. Our method is substantiated by constructing several examples of bivariate scaling vectors for quincunx and box–spline dilation matrices. As the main ingredients of our recipe we derive some implementable conditions for accuracy and orthonormality of an interpolating scaling vector in terms of its mask
Interpolatory Rank-1 Vector Subdivision Schemes
The concept of stationary scalar subdivision being interpolatory does not always extend immediately to the vector valued case. We introduce the concepts of interpolating and data preserving vector subdivision schemes and discuss how these concepts are related. We also present two examples
