In numerical analysis, polynomial interpolation is the interpolation of a given bivariate data set by the polynomial of lowest possible degree that passes through the points of the dataset. [ 1 ]
A solver based on polynomial interpolation that relies on PEP solvers. A solver based on rational interpolation (NLEIGS). MFN can be used to compute the action of a matrix function on a vector. A restarted Krylov solver.
The Remez algorithm or Remez exchange algorithm, published by Evgeny Yakovlevich Remez in 1934, is an iterative algorithm used to find simple approximations to functions, specifically, approximations by functions in a Chebyshev space that are the best in the uniform norm L ∞ sense. [1]
In mathematics, Neville's algorithm is an algorithm used for polynomial interpolation that was derived by the mathematician Eric Harold Neville in 1934. Given n + 1 points, there is a unique polynomial of degree ≤ n which goes through the given points. Neville's algorithm evaluates this polynomial.
Smoothstep is a family of sigmoid-like interpolation and clamping functions commonly used in computer graphics, [1] [2] video game engines, [3] and machine learning. [ 4 ] The function depends on three parameters, the input x , the "left edge" and the "right edge", with the left edge being assumed smaller than the right edge.
Aitken interpolation is an algorithm used for polynomial interpolation that was derived by the mathematician Alexander Aitken. It is similar to Neville's algorithm . See also Aitken's delta-squared process or Aitken extrapolation .
This product is a monic polynomial of degree n. It may be shown that the maximum absolute value (maximum norm) of any such polynomial is bounded from below by 2 1−n. This bound is attained by the scaled Chebyshev polynomials 2 1−n T n, which are also monic. (Recall that |T n (x)| ≤ 1 for x ∈ [−1, 1]. [5])
Low-order polynomials tend to be smooth and high order polynomial curves tend to be "lumpy". To define this more precisely, the maximum number of inflection points possible in a polynomial curve is n-2, where n is the order of the polynomial equation. An inflection point is a location on the curve where it switches from a positive radius to ...
