Spline-Based Robot Navigation
— This paper offers a path planning algorithm based on splines. The sought path avoids the obstacles, and is smooth and short. Smoothing is used as an integral part of the algori...

Hierarchical Spline Approximation of the Signed Distance Function
We present a method to compute the medial axis of a smooth curve or surface by using PHT-spline (polynomial splines over hierarchical T-meshes) hierarchical approximation. In part...

A local fitting algorithm for converting planar curves to B-splines
In this paper we present a local fitting algorithm for converting smooth planar curves to Bsplines. For a smooth planar curve a set of points together with their tangent vectors a...

A variational approach to spline curves on surfaces
Given an m-dimensional surface in Rn , we characterize parametric curves in , which interpolate or approximate a sequence of given points pi and minimize a given energy functio...

Task-space trajectories via cubic spline optimization
Abstract— We consider the task of planning smooth trajectories for robot motion. In this paper we make two contributions. First we present a method for cubic spline optimization;...
