Interpolation of natural cubic spline article pdf available in international journal of mathematics and mathematical sciences 152 january 1992 with 32 reads how we measure reads.
Catmullrom spline motivation with bezier, we avoided specifying tangent vectors but now the curve passes through only half the points. Let the break points knots be x1 spline used is that of forsythe, malcolm and moler an exact cubic is fitted through the four points at each end of the data, and this is used to determine the end conditions. To do this, you can specify the values vector y with two extra elements, one at the beginning and one at the end, to define the endpoint slopes create a vector of data y and another vector with the xcoordinates of the data. Specify the second input with two extra values 0 y 0 to signify that the endpoint slopes are both zero.
