Cm. Zhang et al., A METHOD FOR C-2 PIECEWISE QUARTIC POLYNOMIAL INTERPOLATION, IEICE transactions on information and systems, E79D(5), 1996, pp. 584-590
A new global method for constructing a C-2 piecewise quartic polynomia
l curve is presented. The coefficient matrix of equations which must b
e solved to construct the curve is tridiagonal. The joining points of
adjacent curve segments are the given data points. The constructed cur
ve reproduces exactly a polynomial of degree four or less. The results
of experiments to test the efficiency of the new method are also show
n.
