B-Spline how to create control points for a curve to pass through knot values












0












$begingroup$


I want to create a b-spline curve that will pass through all the (knot) points I give it. How do I construct it? Do I need to find the control points for that curve? And if so - how?

    Is the knot vector fixed in advance, and if yes what knots are used? Also please add an example of 'knot' points

Suppose that your knot points (not to be confused with the B-spline knots!) are ordered in a sequence $(x_1, dots, x_m)$. Then you can compute a B-spline of order $n$ between each ordered pair $(x_i, x_{i+1})$. You can adjust $n$ in order to set the B-spline regularity.

    can you maybe show an example? say I have (x1,y1) (x2,y2) and (x3,y3). How do I construct a B-spline that passes through all these points ?

Follows a MATHEMATICA script showing how to construct a special spline type. (Bézier curves) In the script $BL, BQ,BC$ are Bézier curves of first, (linear), second (quadratic) and third (cubic) order and also how them are recursively built. The points $p_1,p_2,p_2,p_4$ can be considered as control points. By properly positioning these control points, we can cause the curve to pass through determined points



$$
begin{array}{l}
{text{BL}[text{p0$_$},text{p1$_$},text{t$_$}]text{:=}(1-t)text{p0}+t text{p1}}\
{text{BQ}[text{p0$_$},text{p1$_$},text{p2$_$},text{t$_$}]text{:=}(1-t)text{BL}[text{p0},text{p1},t]+t text{BL}[text{p1},text{p2},t]}\{text{BC}[text{p0$_$},text{p1$_$},text{p2$_$},text{p3$_$},text{t$_$}]text{:=}(1-t)text{BQ}[text{p0},text{p1},text{p2},t]+t text{BQ}[text{p1},text{p2},text{p3},t]}
end{array}
$$



$$
begin{array}{l}
{p_1={0,0};}\
{p_2={1,1};}\
{p_3={-1,2};}\
{p_4={-2,0};}\
{text{gr1}=text{ParametricPlot}left[text{BC}left[p_1,p_2,p_3,p_4,tright],{t,0,1},text{PlotStyle}to {text{Blue},text{Thick}}right];}\
