An Adaptive Piecewise Curve-Fitting Package Using a Look-Ahead Strategy.

Abstract

An adaptive curve fitting algorithm for one dimensional data sets is developed and tested. This algorithm is a modification of two earlier curve fitting packages using the least squares (1(2)) or the 1(1) approximation operator. This new algorithm performs a look ahead strategy in the 'backing off' routine for locating the knots joining the polynomial approximating pieces. (Author)
