  2. Newton polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_polynomial

    Newton's form has the simplicity that the new points are always added at one end: Newton's forward formula can add new points to the right, and Newton's backward formula can add new points to the left. The accuracy of polynomial interpolation depends on how close the interpolated point is to the middle of the x values of the set of points used ...

  3. Divided differences - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divided_differences

    [1] Divided differences is a recursive division process. Given a sequence of data points (,), …, (,), the method calculates the coefficients of the interpolation polynomial of these points in the Newton form.

  4. Neville's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neville's_algorithm

    Given n + 1 points, there is a unique polynomial of degree ≤ n which goes through the given points. Neville's algorithm evaluates this polynomial. Neville's algorithm evaluates this polynomial. Neville's algorithm is based on the Newton form of the interpolating polynomial and the recursion relation for the divided differences .

  5. Polynomial interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_interpolation

    The original use of interpolation polynomials was to approximate values of important transcendental functions such as natural logarithm and trigonometric functions.Starting with a few accurately computed data points, the corresponding interpolation polynomial will approximate the function at an arbitrary nearby point.

  6. Interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpolation

    If we consider as a variable in a topological space, and the function () mapping to a Banach space, then the problem is treated as "interpolation of operators". [11] The classical results about interpolation of operators are the Riesz–Thorin theorem and the Marcinkiewicz theorem. There are also many other subsequent results.

  7. Difference engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Difference_engine

    Any odd column value that passes from "9" to "0" activates a carry lever. This is like Step 1, except it is odd columns (3,5,7) added to even columns (2,4,6), and column one has its values transferred by a sector gear to the print mechanism on the left end of the engine. Any even column value that passes from "9" to "0" activates a carry lever.

  8. Multivariate interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivariate_interpolation

    ) and the interpolation problem consists of yielding values at arbitrary points (,,, … ) {\displaystyle (x,y,z,\dots )} . Multivariate interpolation is particularly important in geostatistics , where it is used to create a digital elevation model from a set of points on the Earth's surface (for example, spot heights in a topographic survey or ...

  9. Direct multiple shooting method - Wikipedia

    The method starts by guessing somehow the values of y at all grid points t k with 0 ≤ k ≤ N − 1. Denote these guesses by y k. Let y(t; t k, y k) denote the solution emanating from the kth grid point, that is, the solution of the initial value problem ′ = (, ()), =.
