These authors are made preserving interpolating curve corresponding to the given a modification in input derivatives in their interpolating monotone data. The one very important feature from the schemes if they contravene the necessary monotonicity interpolation methods is that make good judgment to study conditions. Schumaker [5] developed a very economical is its positivity and monotonicity which are important interpolation by piecewise quadratic polynomial but the aspects of the shape.

  • Equivalence Between Forward Rate Interpolations and Discount Factor Interpolations for the Yield Curve Construction
    Article Equivalence between forward rate interpolations and discount factor interpolations for the yield curve construction Jherek Healy * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: December 2019 Abstract: The traditional way of building a yield curve is to choose an interpolation on discount factors, implied by the market tradable instruments. Since then, constructions based on specific interpolations of the forward rates have become the trend. We show here that some popular interpolation methods on the forward rates correspond exactly to classical interpolation methods on discount factors. This paper also aims at clarifying the differences between interpolations in terms of discount factors, instantaneous forward rates, discrete forward rates, and constant period forward rates. Keywords: monotone interpolation; cubic spline; yield curve; finance 1. Introduction The traditional way of building a yield curve is to choose an interpolation on discount factors, implied by the market tradable instruments [1,2]. Since then, with the introduction of the monotone convex interpolation by Hagan and West [3], constructions based on specific interpolations of the discrete forward rates have become the trend, mostly because the discrete forward rates are more directly related to the market observables. We show here that some popular interpolation methods on the consecutive discrete forward rates, or on instantaneous forward rates, correspond actually to classic interpolation methods on discount factors. The equivalence was suggested in [4]. The aim of this paper is to clarify this equivalence further, and to show in particular that the smart quadratic interpolation, often used in banks, and described in [5] is equivalent to a Hermite spline interpolation on the logarithm of discount factors, and the area-preserving quadratic spline interpolation of Hagan [5] is equivalent to a cubic spline interpolation of class C2 on the logarithm of discount factors.

    A Curve Tutorial for Introductory Computer Graphics Michael Gleicher Department of Computer Sciences University of Wisconsin, Madison October 7, 2003 Note to 559 Students: These notes were put together rather hastily. Some sections are still missing. However, the ones that are important for this class are here (or in Fundamentals of Computer Graphics). Sometimes I refer to the old 559 textbook Computer Graphics by Hearn and Baker. Be sure to check for errata - I hope I didn't make many mistakes, but realistically, . 1 Curves Mathematically, a curve is: A continuous map from a one-dimensional space to an n-dimensional space. Intuitively, think of a curve as something you can draw with a (thin) pen on a piece of paper. You cannot create ¯lled regions, but you can create the outlines of things. A curve is an in¯nitely large set of points. The points in a curve have a property that any point has 2 neighbors, except for a small number of points that have one neighbor (these are the endpoints). Some curves have no endpoints, either because they are in¯nite (like a line) or they are closed (loop around and connect to themselves). The problem that we need to address is how to describe a curve - to give \names" or representations to all curves so that we can represent them on a computer. For some curves, the problem of naming them is easy since they have known shapes: line segments, circles, elliptical arcs, etc. A general curve that doesn't not have a \named" shape is sometimes called a free-form curve.

  • Real-Time Interpolation of Streaming Data
    Computer Science • 21(4) 2020 https://doi.org/10.7494/csci.2020.21.4.3932 Roman Dębski REAL-TIME INTERPOLATION OF STREAMING DATA Abstract One of the key elements of the real-time C1-continuous cubic spline interpola- tion of streaming data is an estimator of the first derivative of the interpolated function that is more accurate than those based on finite difference schemas. Two such greedy look-ahead heuristic estimators, based on the calculus of vari- ations (denoted as MinBE and MinAJ2), are formally defined (in closed form), along with the corresponding cubic splines that they generate. They are then comparatively evaluated in a series of numerical experiments involving different types of performance measures. The presented results show that the cubic Her- mite splines generated by heuristic MinAJ2 significantly outperformed those that were based on finite difference schemas in terms of all of the tested per- formance measures (including convergence). The proposed approach is quite general. It can be directly applied to streams of univariate functional data like time-series. Multi-dimensional curves that are defined parametrically (after splitting) can be handled as well. The streaming character of the algorithm means that it can also be useful in processing data sets that are too large to fit in the memory (e.g., edge computing devices, embedded time-series databases).

  • Nonnegativity-, Monotonicity-, Or Convexity-Preserving Cubic and Quintic Hermite Interpolation*
    mathematics of computation volume 52, number 186 april 1989, pages 471-494 Nonnegativity-, Monotonicity-, or Convexity-Preserving Cubic and Quintic Hermite Interpolation* By Randall L. Dougherty**, Alan Edelman***, and James M. Hyman Dedicated to Professor Eugene Isaacson on the occasion of his 70th birthday Abstract. The Hermite polynomials are simple, effective interpolants of discrete data. These interpolants can preserve local positivity, monotonicity, and convexity of the data if we restrict their derivatives to satisfy constraints at the data points. This paper de- scribes the conditions that must be satisfied for cubic and quintic Hermite interpolants to preserve these properties when they exist in the discrete data. We construct algorithms to ensure that these constraints are satisfied and give numerical examples to illustrate the effectiveness of the algorithms on locally smooth and rough data. 1. Introduction. Piecewise polynomial interpolants, especially those based on Hermite polynomials (polynomials determined by their values and values of one or more derivatives at both ends of an interval), have a number of desirable properties. They are easy to compute once the derivative values are chosen. If the derivative values are chosen locally (e.g., by finite difference methods), then the interpolant at a given point will depend only on the given data at nearby mesh points. If the derivatives are computed by spline methods, then the interpolant will have an extra degree of continuity at the mesh points. In either case, the interpolant is linear in the given function values and has excellent convergence properties as the mesh spacing decreases. These methods, however, do not necessarily preserve the shape of the given data.

    Journal of Technical Science and Technologies; ISSN 2298-0032 Spline Interpolation Techniques Erdogan KAYA* Abstract This article belongs to an area of computer technologies and engineering, and discusses four different spline interpolation meth- ods (linear, quadratic, cubic and cubic Hermite) for chemical engineering application, applied on spray dryer case. In the article GUI (graphical user interface) is coded in Matlab. It is designed to test four interpolation methods and compares them. Within Mat- lab, GUI tools enable you to perform tasks such as creating and customizing plots, curves and surfaces, and analyzing and filtering signals. In the article, interpolation techniques are discussed by using the data sets from any experimental results. Finally, A Spline GUI is developed for the end-users to interpolate their own experimental data sets. Users need to enter their experimental data to the screen. After that by clicking push buttons, they can plot the spline method desired. If the user clicks on the check button, answers can be plotted in an external figure window as well. The figure can be saved or copied to Clipboard.
