"Spline Regression Models shows the nuts-and-bolts of using dummy variables to formulate and estimate various spline regression models. For some researchers this will involve situations where the number and location of the spline knots are known in advance, while others will nee…
This monograph presents a systematic development of the basic mathematical principles and concepts associated with stationary subdivision algorithms which are used for generating curves and surfaces in computer graphics. Special attention is given to the structure of such algori…
In many areas of science, especially geophysics, geography and meteorology, the data are often directions or axes rather than scalars or unrestricted vectors. Directional statistics considers data which are mainly unit vectors lying in two- or three-dimensional space (R² or R³).…
