I've just encountered a segfault when using DierckxSpline::percur
function. Below is the minimal example which triggers the error:
---
library(DierckxSpline)
x <- 1:10
y <- rep(0, 10)
pspline <- percur(x, y)
---
*** caught segfault ***
address (nil), cause 'memory not mapped'
Traceback:
1: .Fortran("percur", iopt = as.integer(iopt), m = as.integer(m),
x = as.single(x), y = as.single(y), w = as.single(w), k = k, s as.single(s),
nest = as.integer(nest), n = as.integer(n), knots Knots, coef = coef, fp =
single(1), wrk = wrk, lwrk = lwrk, iwrk iwrk, ier = integer(1))
2: curfitSS(xyw, s = s, knots = knots, n = n, from = From, to = To,
k = k, periodic = periodic, ...)
3: curfit.default(x, periodic = TRUE, ...)
4: curfit(x, periodic = TRUE, ...)
5: percur(x, y)
Possible actions:
1: abort (with core dump, if enabled)

Thanks for this bug report. I've replicated the problem using
your excellent example. Unfortunately, this may not be an easy bug to
fix.
Might it be feasible for you to use either the 'periodicSpline'
function in the 'splines' package or a Fourier basis in the
'fda' package?
Best Wishes,

Hello:
The following shows how to fit a simple periodic function to data
using Fourier bases in the 'fda' package. Fixing the bug you reported
in the 'percur' function may not be easy. (To my knowledge, the primary
capability in the 'DierckxSpline' package not otherwise available in R
is the ability to estimate knot locations with the free-knot spline
function, 'curfit.free.knot'. For other purposes, users may be wiser to
use other packages.)
Hope this helps.
Spencer Graves
# problem
x <- seq(0.2, 0.8, 0.01)
y <- cos(2*pi*x^2) + 0.1*rnorm(length(x))
plot(x, y, xlim=0:1)
# simple solution
library(fda)
Fourier1 <- create.fourier.basis()
FourierFit <- Data2fd(x, y, Fourier1)
plotfit.fd(y, x, FourierFit)
# Allow more flexibility
Fourier9 <- create.fourier.basis(nbasis=2*9+1)
# constant + 9 cosine & sine terms
# Naive initial solution
FourierSmooth0 <- smooth.basisPar(x, y, Fourier9)
plotfit.fd(y, x, FourierSmooth0$fd)
# Oops: Need some smoothing
# Try again.
FourierSmooth1 <- smooth.basisPar(x, y, Fourier9, lambda=1)
plotfit.fd(y, x, FourierSmooth1$fd)
# Much better.
