Detailed Description

template<typename _Scalar, int _Dim, int _Degree>
class Eigen::Spline< _Scalar, _Dim, _Degree >

A class representing multi-dimensional spline curves.

The class represents B-splines with non-uniform knot vectors. Each control point of the B-spline is associated with a basis function

$\begin{align*} C(u) & = \sum_{i=0}^{n}N_{i,p}(u)P_i \end{align*}$

Template Parameters

_Scalar	The underlying data type (typically float or double)
_Dim	The curve dimension (e.g. 2 or 3)
_Degree	Per default set to Dynamic; could be set to the actual desired degree for optimization purposes (would result in stack allocation of several temporary variables).

with i ranging from 0 up to the specified order.

Parameters

u	Parameter $u \in [0;1]$ at which the non-zero basis function derivatives are computed.
order	The order up to which the basis function derivatives are computes.
