Evaluate the design matrix for the B-splines defined by knots
at the values in x
.
splineDesign(knots, x, ord = 4, derivs, outer.ok = FALSE,
sparse = FALSE)
spline.des (knots, x, ord = 4, derivs, outer.ok = FALSE,
sparse = FALSE)
a numeric vector of knot positions (which will be sorted increasingly if needed).
a numeric vector of values at which to evaluate the B-spline
functions or derivatives. Unless outer.ok
is true, the
values in x
must be between the “inner” knots
knots[ord]
and knots[ length(knots) - (ord-1)]
.
a positive integer giving the order of the spline function. This is the number of coefficients in each piecewise polynomial segment, thus a cubic spline has order 4. Defaults to 4.
an integer vector with values between 0
and
ord - 1
, conceptually recycled to the length of x
.
The derivative of the given order is evaluated at the x
positions. Defaults to zero (or a vector of zeroes of the same
length as x
).
logical indicating if x
should be allowed
outside the inner knots, see the x
argument.
logical indicating if the result should inherit from class
"sparseMatrix"
(from package Matrix).
A matrix with length(x)
rows and length(knots) - ord
columns. The i'th row of the matrix contains the coefficients of the
B-splines (or the indicated derivative of the B-splines) defined by
the knot
vector and evaluated at the i'th value of x
.
Each B-spline is defined by a set of ord
successive knots so
the total number of B-splines is length(knots) - ord
.
