This paper presents a description and analysis of a rational cubic spline FIF (RCSFIF) that has two shape parameters in each subinterval when it is defined implicitly. To be precise, we consider the iterated function system (IFS) with $q_n=\frac{P_n}{Q_n}$, $n \in \mathbb{N}_{N-1}$, where $P_n(x)$ are cubic polynomials to be determined through interpolatory conditions of the corresponding FIF and $Q_n(x)$ are preassigned quadratic polynomials each containing two free shape/rationality parameters. We establish the convergence of the proposed RCSFIF $g$ to the original function $\Phi \in \mathcal{C}^3(I)$ with respect to the uniform norm. We also provide the sufficient conditions for an automatic selection of the rational IFS parameters to preserve monotonicity and convexity of a prescribed set of data points. We consider some examples to illustrate the developed fractal interpolation scheme and its shape preserving aspects. 查看全文>>
