Abstract
Generalized splines are smooth functions belonging piecewisely to spaces which are a natural generalization of algebraic polynomials. GB-splines are a B-spline-like basis for generalized splines, and they are usually defined by means of an integral recurrence relation which makes their evaluation quite cumbersome and computationally expensive. We present a simple strategy for approximating the values of a cardinal GB-spline of arbitrary degree p, with a particular focus on hyperbolic and trigonometric GB-splines due to their interest in applications. The proposed strategy is based on the Fourier properties of cardinal GB-splines. The approximant is expressed as a linear combination of scaled and dilated versions of (polynomial) cardinal B-splines of degree p, whose coefficients can be efficiently computed via discrete convolution. Sharp error estimates are provided and illustrated with some numerical examples.
