Abstract

This paper is a continuation of the paper [1] of the same name by the first author in which it is shown how values of B-splines and their derivatives can be computed by stable algorithms based on recursions involving only convex combinations of nonnegative quantities (cf. also Cox [3]). In this paper we consider integrals of B-splines and of B-spline series. In addition, we derive recursions for the computation of integrals of products of B-splines (of possibly different orders and on possibly different knot sequences). As an application, we consider the numerical computation of the Gram matrix which arises in least squares fitting using B-splines.
