Hi Sergey,

I'm looking for a way to get the optimum number of knots (and their position) to fully describe a curve without loosing information (especially when the the variations are rapid and strong).

Do you have any function that could help me in this task?

Regards.

No, there is no out-of-box support for such functionality. You may try to minimize interpolation error with respect to nodes locations. You will have following problem:
* optimization space - space of all possible nodes locations
* function being minimized - error of the interpolant built using given set of nodes
* additional penalty for having too close nodes is necessary
* optimization is performed using numerical differentiation
