THE METHOD OF FINDING POINTS OF INTERSECTION OF TWO CUBIC BEZIER CURVES USING THE SYLVESTER MATRIX
Journal Title: Silesian Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Sylvester matrix is used to create a 9th degree polynomial from coefficients of two cubic Bezier curves. The real roots of this polynomial allow to compute points of intersection of aforementioned curves. An additional constraint is used to indicate valid points. The “reverseinverse law” is presented in order to reduce the cost of calculation in this particular case. Also some limitations of the method as well as the ways to avoid them, if possible, are pointed out.

THE ULTRAMETRIC PROPERTIES OF BINARY DATASETS
Many multivariate algorithms commonly applied for binary datasets depend on a proper metric (i.e., dissimilarity function) imposed on binary vectors. In the following work the relationships between different metrics defi...
THE TAYLOR TRANSFORMATION HYBRID METHOD APPLIED FOR SOLVING THE STEFAN PROBLEM
The paper presents the analytic-numerical hybrid method using, among others, the Taylor transformation, thanks to which the solution of the Stefan problem is replaced by the solution of a nonlinear system of equations.
