In numerical analysis, multivariate interpolation or multidimensional interpolation is interpolation on multivariate functions, having more than one variable or defined over a multi-dimensional domain. [1] A common special case is bivariate interpolation or two-dimensional interpolation, based on two variables or two dimensions.
A Lozenge diagram is a diagram that is used to describe different interpolation formulas that can be constructed for a given data set. A line starting on the left edge and tracing across the diagram to the right can be used to represent an interpolation formula if the following rules are followed: [5]
A description of linear interpolation can be found in the ancient Chinese mathematical text called The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art (九章算術), [1] dated from 200 BC to AD 100 and the Almagest (2nd century AD) by Ptolemy. The basic operation of linear interpolation between two values is commonly used in computer graphics.
Multivariate interpolation is the interpolation of functions of more than one variable. Methods include nearest-neighbor interpolation, bilinear interpolation and bicubic interpolation in two dimensions, and trilinear interpolation in three dimensions. They can be applied to gridded or scattered data.
Example of bilinear interpolation on the unit square with the z values 0, 1, 1 and 0.5 as indicated. Interpolated values in between represented by color. In mathematics, bilinear interpolation is a method for interpolating functions of two variables (e.g., x and y) using repeated linear interpolation.
Bicubic interpolation on the square [,] [,] consisting of 25 unit squares patched together. Bicubic interpolation as per Matplotlib's implementation. Colour indicates function value. The black dots are the locations of the prescribed data being interpolated. Note how the color samples are not radially symmetric.
Trilinear interpolation as two bilinear interpolations followed by a linear interpolation. Trilinear interpolation is a method of multivariate interpolation on a 3-dimensional regular grid . It approximates the value of a function at an intermediate point ( x , y , z ) {\displaystyle (x,y,z)} within the local axial rectangular prism linearly ...
The quintic Hermite interpolation based on the function (), its first (′) and second derivatives (″) at two different points (and ) can be used for example to interpolate the position of an object based on its position, velocity and acceleration.
