It is an invaluable means to interpolate practical data with smooth functions.Multivariate polysplines have applications in the design of surfaces and ""smoothing"" that are essential in computer aided geometric design (CAGD and CAD/CAM systems), geophysics, magnetism, geodesy, geography, wavelet analysis and signal and image processing. In many cases involving practical data in these areas, polysplines are proving more effecti ER -
