Abstract
- Abstract: Smoothing of noisy data has always been a topic of interest in many areas where computer simulations have been performed, including natural sciences as well as economics and social sciences. In this paper we present an approximation method of explicit curves or surfaces from exact and noisy data by fairness cubic or bicubic splines. A variational problem of explicit curves or surfaces is obtained by minimizing a quadratic functional in a space of cubic or bicubic splines from noisy data. We show the existence and uniqueness of this problem as long as a convergence result especially for noisy data is carefully established. We analyze some numerical and graphical examples using fictional noisy data in order to prove the validity of our method. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
