Abstract

Boundary conditions are still an open question in the field of approximating subdivision since the problem of determining a general construction of the endpoint rules we need when subdividing a B-spline curve/surface with Bézier end conditions has not been solved yet. This consideration prompted us to present an efficient algorithm for the conversion between B-spline bases defined over different knot-partitions, which turns out to be extremely useful for computing a general formulation of the subdivision matrix generating an endpoint-interpolating B-spline of arbitrary degree.
