Functions on a bounded domain in scientific computing are often approximated using piecewise polynomial approximations on meshes that adapt to the shape of the geometry. We study the problem of function approximation using splines on a…
Continuous signal representations are naturally suited for inverse problems, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography, because the measurements depend on an underlying physically continuous signal. While classical…

The nonlinearity of a Boolean function is a key property in deciding its suitability for cryptographic purposes, e.g. as a combining function in stream ciphers, and so the nonlinearity computation is an important problem for applications.…

B-spline models are a powerful way to represent scientific data sets with a functional approximation. However, these models can suffer from spurious oscillations when the data to be approximated are not uniformly distributed. Model…
Let $\xi = \{x^j\}_{j=1}^n$ be a grid of $n$ points in the $d$-cube ${\II}^d:=[0,1]^d$, and $\Phi = \{\phi_j\}_{j =1}^n$ a family of $n$ functions on ${\II}^d$. We define the linear sampling algorithm $L_n(\Phi,\xi,\cdot)$ for an…
We introduce a numerical method for reconstructing a multidimensional surface using the gradient of the surface measured at some values of the coordinates. The method consists of defining a multidimensional spline function and minimizing…
