bspline: B-spline function

In ibs: Integral of B-Spline Functions

Description

Evaluate the value of the B-spline function with knots knots, order ord, and coefficients coef at value(s) x.

Usage

bspline(x, knots, ord, coef = rep(1, length(knots) - ord))

Arguments

x	Numerical value or vector. The value(s) at which to evaluate the B-spline.
knots	Numerical vector. The knot positions/sites of the B-spline function.
ord	An integer >=1. The order of the B-spline function. Equals degree plus 1.
coef	A numerical vector. The coefficients (de Boor points) defining the B-spline function.

Value

A scalar or a vector of length equal to that of x.

Note

In contrast to the implementation based on the splineDesign function from the splines package, this version of the B-spline function is left-continuous at the rightmost knot site.
