On the numerical condition of polynomials in Bernstein form (Q1098225): Difference between revisions

The Bernstein-Bézier curve and surface forms play an important part in approximation theory and computer aided design. From the point of view of condition numbers of polynomials, the authors discuss the advantages of the polynomials in Bernstein form over the polynomial in other forms. Generally speaking, the authors prove the following fact that, among a large family of polynomial bases, the Bernstein basis shows optimal root conditioning. At last, some examples are used to illustrate these results.
