Author Description

The proceedings of the Seventh International Symposium on Approximation Theory held in Austin, Texas, January 1992, contain the nine survey papers from the conference, which deal with some particularly active subareas of approximation theory, including quasi-interpolants, wavelets, subdivision algorithms, rational approximation and interpolation, cardinal interpolation, neural networks, knot removal for spline curves and surfaces, and approximation by algebraic polynomials.
