[Dune-devel] [GSoC2016]Spline topic discussion

[Xinyun Li]

Hello everyone:

 

My name is Xinyun Li. I'm writing to get more information about your Gsoc
topics. 

 

About myself:

I'm a master student studying medical image processing in Erlangen
University in Germany. Now I'm doing my master thesis in Siemens using C++
and python. Before that, I just finished my practical project in the
university on "B-Spline curve surface fitting " under our open-source
framework CONRAD(JAVA). I will soon commit the code to Github. I'm quite
familiar with Splines and other geometry modelling concepts; Also I'm quite
comfortable with C++ since I'm using it on a daily base for my Master thesis
from last October. Therefore, your topics seem to fit my interest and
capacity perfectly.

 

About the topic:

The project tasks sound clear to me. But I have some problem with accessing
your source code. Could you please kindly give me some tutorial? Also, it
seems you already have the BSplineGeometry class. I assume you already have
the basis functions of B-splines so the splines can be easily built given
the knot vector and the control points. I have some thoughts on "small
projects to get started". Some functions that can be implemented:

1.    Evalution at a certain parameter (de Boor Algorithm)

2.    Knot addtiton and deletion (Boehm Algorithm)

3.    Fitting to a list of points(global or local interpolation)

 

Thanks for your time and hope to hear from you soon!
