Abstract

Here, a one-dimensional monotone interpolation method based on interface reconstruction with partial volumes in the slope-space utilizing the Hermite cubic-spline, is proposed. The new method is only quartic, however is C² and unconditionally monotone. A set of control points is employed to constrain the curvature of the interpolation function and to eliminate possible nonphysical oscillations in the slope space. An extension of this method in two-dimensions is also discussed.

Positivity conditions for quartic polynomials

Journal Article Ulrich, G ; Watson, L T - SIAM Journal on Scientific and Statistical Computing (Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics); (United States)

Simple necessary and sufficient conditions that a quartic polynomial f(z) be nonnegative for z>0 or a[le]z[le]b are derived, and illustrated geometrically. The geometry provides considerable insight and suggests various approximations and computational simplifications. The theory is applied to monotone quintic spline interpolation, giving necessary and sufficient conditions and an algorithm for monotone Hermite quintic interpolation.

Accurate monotonicity-preserving cubic interpolation

Technical Report Hyman, J. M.

A simple and effective algorithm to construct a monotonicity-preserving cubic Hermite interpolant for data with rapid variations is presented. Constraining the derivatives of the interpolant according to geometric considerations makes the interpolant consistent with local monotonicity properties of the data. Numerical examples are given that compare the quality and accuracy of the proposed interpolation method with other standard interpolants.

CUBIC SPLINE, A CURVE FITTING ROUTINE

Technical Report Fowler, A H ; Wilson, C W

A method of mathematically fitting a curve through a given ordered set of points was developed and programmed in fortran computer language. The fitted curve, which is made up of a series of normalized cubic polynomials, very nearly approximates the curve generated by passing an infinitely thin spline through the sets of points and is, therefore, called a cubic spline''. The curve has the prop. erties of continuous position, slope, and curvature. The restraints placed upon the cubic spline may be relaxed by applying an additional feature which permits the points to be adjusted by, at most, some preset value.more »« less
Predicting protein concentrations with ELISA microarray assays, monotonic splines and Monte Carlo simulation

Journal Article Daly, Don S ; Anderson, Kevin K ; White, Amanda M ; ... - Statistical Applications in Genetics and Molecular Biology, 7(1):Article 21

Background: A microarray of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, or ELISA microarray, predicts simultaneously the concentrations of numerous proteins in a small sample. These predictions, however, are uncertain due to processing error and biological variability. Making sound biological inferences as well as improving the ELISA microarray process require require both concentration predictions and creditable estimates of their errors. Methods: We present a statistical method based on monotonic spline statistical models, penalized constrained least squares fitting (PCLS) and Monte Carlo simulation (MC) to predict concentrations and estimate prediction errors in ELISA microarray. PCLS restrains the flexible spline to a fit of assay intensitymore »« less

Modeling the dispersion of atmospheric pollution using cubic splines and Chapeau functions. [Environmental transport of chemical and radioactive gaseous wastes at Savannah River Plant]

Conference Pepper, D. W. ; Kern, C. D.

A quasi-Lagrangian cubic-spline method and a chapeau-function (Galerkin) method are investigated and numerical results compared in advecting a passive scalar. Both methods are simple to use, computationally fast, and give reasonably accurate results. Little numerical dissipation is manifested by either scheme. In simple advection tests with equal mesh spacing, chapeau functions are more accurate than the quasi-Lagrangian cubic-spline method for maintaining peak concentration values. In tests with unequal mesh spacing, cubic-spline methods have lower reflectivity (noise) than chapeau functions and maintain slightly more accurate concentration distributions. Both cubic splines and chapeau functions are used to solve the dispersion of gaseousmore »« less
