61 Geometry: Curves Lagrange Interpolating Polynomial The Lagrange interpolating polynomial is the polynomial P(x) of degree <= (n-1) that passes through the n points (x 1,y 1 = f(x 1 )), x 2,y 2 = f(x 2 )),..., x n,y n = f(x n )), and is given by: 61

62 Geometry: Curves Lagrange Interpolating Polynomial Where: Written explicitly: 62

63 Geometry: Curves Cubic Spline Interpolating Polynomial A cubic spline is a spline constructed of piecewise third-order polynomials which pass through a set of m control points. The second derivative of each polynomial is commonly set to zero at the endpoints, since this provides a boundary condition that completes the system of m -2 equations. This produces a so-called "natural" cubic spline and leads to a simple tridiagonal system which can be solved easily to give the coefficients of the polynomials. However, this choice is not the only one possible, and other boundary conditions can be used instead. 63

64 Geometry: Curves Cubic Spline Interpolating Polynomial Consider 1-dimensional spline for a set of n+1 points (y 1, y 2,.., y n ), let the ith piece of the spline be represented by: Where t is a parameter and i = 0,, n-1 then Rearranging all these equations, leads to the following beautifully symmetric tridiagonal system: If the curve is instead closed, the system becomes 64

65 Geometry: Curves Cubic Spline/Lagrange

66 Geometry: Curves Bézier Given a set of n + 1 control points P 0, P 1,.., P n, the corresponding Bèzier curve (or Bernstein- Bèzier curve) is given by: Where B i,n (t) is a Bernstein polynomial and. A "rational" Bézier curve is defined by: where p is the order, B i,p are the Bernstein polynomials, P i are control points, and the weight W i of P i is the last ordinate of the homogeneous Point P iw. These curves are closed under perspective transformations, and can represent conic sections exactly. 66

67 Geometry: Curves Bézier:Properties The Bézier curve always passes through the first and last control points. The curve is tangent to P1 P0 and Pn Pn-1 at the endpoints. The curve lies within the convex hull of the control points. 67

68 Geometry: Curves Bézier:Properties A desirable property is that the curve can be translated and rotated by performing these Operations on the control points. Undesirable properties of Bézier curves are their numerical instability for large numbers of control points, and the fact that moving a single control point changes the global shape of the curve. 68

69 Geometry: Curves Bézier: Bernstein Polynomials B in (t) = C ni (t-1) n-i t i, C ni = n! / i!(n-i)! B j i (t) = (1-t)B j-1 i (t) + t B j-1 i-1 (t) B 1 0 (t) = (1-t)B 0 0 (t) + t B -10 (t) B 1 1 (t) = (1-t)B 0 1 (t) + t B 00 (t) B 0 2 (t) = (1-t)B 0 1 (t) + t B -11 (t) 69

70 Geometry: Curves Bézier: Bernstein Polynomials B i j (t) = (1-t)B i j-1 (t) + t B i-1 j-1 (t) Unit Partition: Σ i=0,n B in (t) = 1 0<=B in (t)<= 1 B in (0) = 0 et B in (1) = 0 B 0n (0) = 1 B nn (1) = 1 70

71 Geometry: Curves B-Spline A B-Spline is a generalization of the Bézier curve. Let a vector known as the knot vector be defined T = {t 0, t 1,, t m }, where T is a no decreasing sequence with, and define control points P 0,..., P n. Define the degree as: p = m-n-1 The "knots t p+1,..., t m-p-1 are called internal knots. 71

72 Geometry: Curves B-Spline Define the basis functions as: Then the curve defined by: is a B-spline. Specific types include the non periodic B-spline (first p+1 knots equal 0 and last p+1 equal to 1; illustrated above) and uniform B-spline (internal knots are equally spaced). A B-spline with no internal knots is a Bézier curve. A curve is p - k times differentiable at a point where k duplicate knot values occur. 72

73 Geometry: Curves NURBS-Curve A non uniform rational B-spline curve defined by: where p is the order, N i,p are the B-Spline basis functions, P i are control points, and the weight W i of P i is the last ordinate of the homogeneous point P iw. These curves are closed under perspective transformations, and can represent conic sections exactly. 73

74 Geometry: Curves Conics P(t) = i = 3 i = 0 i = 3 wi Ni, 2( t) Pi( t) i =00 wi Ni, 2( t) Parabola w=1 (0,0,0,1,1,1) Hyperbole w=4 Ellipse w=1/4 74

75 Geometry: Curves Arcs NURBS of degree 2 Control points (Isosceles triangle) Knot vector (0,0,0,1,1,1) 75

76 Geometry: Curves Circles (0, 0, 0, 1/3, 1/3, 2/3, 2/3, 1, 1, 1) (0, 0, 0, 1/4, 1/4, 1/2, 1/2, 3/4, 3/4, 1, 1, 1) 76

77 Geometry: Surfaces Bézier A given Bézier surface of order (n, m) is defined by a set of (n + 1)(m + 1) control points ki,j. evaluated over the unit square, where: is a Bernstein polynomial, and is the binomial coefficient. 77

78 Geometry: Surfaces Bézier S(u,v) = Σ i=0,n Σ j=0,m B in (u) B jm (v) P ij (n+1)(n+1) points P ij P i (v) = Σ j=0,m B jm (v)p ij 78

79 Geometry: Surfaces NURBS NURBS are nearly ubiquitous for computer-aided design (CAD), manufacturing (CAM), and engineering (CAE) and are part of numerous industry wide used standards, such as IGES, STEP, ACIS, Parasolid. 79

80 Geometry: Surfaces NURBS: Properties NURBS curves and surfaces are useful for a number of reasons: They are invariant under affine as well as perspective transformations. They offer one common mathematical form for both standard analytical shapes (e.g., conics) and free-form shapes. They provide the flexibility to design a large variety of shapes. They reduce the memory consumption when storing shapes (compared to simpler methods). They can be evaluated reasonably quickly by numerically stable and accurate algorithms. They are generalizations of non-rational B-Splines and non-rational and rational Bézier curves and surfaces. 80
