Spline meaning
A long, thin piece of metal or wood. | A strip of wood or other material inserted into grooves in each of two pieces of wood to provide additional surface for gluing. | A flexible strip of metal or other material, that may be bent into a curve and used in a similar manner to a ruler to draw smooth curves between points.

Example, if we want to interpolate three values in between B-spline nodes ( ), we can write the signal as: Convolution of the signal with a rectangle function gives first order interpolated b-spline values.
For example, the CAT6, unlike its predecessor, features a plastic spline in the center of the cable that separates the conductor wires to dampen the unwanted leakage of signals in a communication channel known as crosstalk.
Aiding in that area is what GM calls “heavy-duty ball-spline halfshafts,” shown in the clip above.
A fundamental theorem states that every spline function of a given degree, smoothness, and domain partition, can be uniquely represented as a linear combination of B-splines of that same degree and smoothness, and over that same partition.
A spline is a rubber coated articulated metal that can be manually bent to most curves.
Fast b-spline interpolation on a uniform sample domain can be done by iterative mean-filtering.
For any given set of knots, the B-spline is unique, hence the name, B being short for Basis.
For instance, the natural cubic spline is piecewise cubic and twice continuously differentiable.
Included as part of Spatial's suite of 3D modeling development technologies, 3D Deformable Modeling uses local and global editing features that allow for the easy creation and manipulation of free-form B-spline and NURBS curves and surfaces.
Once the propeller is removed, the splined tube can be cut away with a grinder and a new spline bushing is then required.
Some derivatives of the spline function may also be continuous, depending on whether the knots are distinct or not.
Spline interpolation uses low-degree polynomials in each of the intervals, and chooses the polynomial pieces such that they fit smoothly together.
The key property of spline functions is that they are continuous at the knots.
The two curved green tubes represent spline fits to the polypeptide backbone.
Thus, the objective function for least squares minimization is, for a spline function of degree k, : W(x) is a weight and y(x) is the datum value at x. The coefficients are the parameters to be determined.
When the weight is equal to 1, a NURBS is simply a B-spline and as such NURBS generalizes both B-splines and Bézier curves and surfaces, the primary difference being the weighting of the control points which makes NURBS curves "rational".
