Bézier subdivision and degree elevation algorithms generate piecewise linear approximations of Bézier curves that converge to the original Bézier curve. Discrete derivatives of arbitrary order can be associated with these piecewise linear functions via divided differences. Here we establish the conv

we consider the degree elevation and reduction of B~zier curves as the filter bank process. The process consists of the synthesis filters and the analysis filters. Using the relationship of basis changes, we find what these filters are and how these filters are related. Explicit forms of each filter
Sections of parametric surfaces defined by equally spaced parameter values can be very unevenly spaced physically. This can cause practical problems when the surface is to be drawn or machined automatically. This paper describes a method for imposing a good parametrization on a curve constructed by
A new formulation for the representation and designing of curves and surfaces is presented. It is a novel generalization of Bézier curves and surfaces. Firstly, a class of polynomial basis functions with n adjustable shape parameters is present. It is a natural extension to classical Bernstein basis
