## mcsplines

The smooth mcsplines option connects consecutive points by cubic splines constrained such that the smoothed function preserves the monotonicity and convexity of the original data points. This reduces the effect of outliers. FN Fritsch & RE Carlson (1980) "Monotone Piecewise Cubic Interpolation", SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis 17: 238–246.
