  2. Newton polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_polynomial

    In the mathematical field of numerical analysis, a Newton polynomial, named after its inventor Isaac Newton, [1] is an interpolation polynomial for a given set of data points. The Newton polynomial is sometimes called Newton's divided differences interpolation polynomial because the coefficients of the polynomial are calculated using Newton's ...

  3. Polynomial interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_interpolation

    One method is to write the interpolation polynomial in the Newton form (i.e. using Newton basis) and use the method of divided differences to construct the coefficients, e.g. Neville's algorithm. The cost is O( n 2 ) operations.

  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 is based on the Newton form of the interpolating polynomial and the recursion relation for the divided differences.

    Spline interpolationinterpolation by piecewise polynomials Spline (mathematics) — the piecewise polynomials used as interpolants; Perfect spline — polynomial spline of degree m whose mth derivate is ±1; Cubic Hermite spline. Centripetal Catmull–Rom spline — special case of cubic Hermite splines without self-intersections or cusps

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton–Cotes_formulas

    It is assumed that the value of a function f defined on [,] is known at + equally spaced points: < < <.There are two classes of Newton–Cotes quadrature: they are called "closed" when = and =, i.e. they use the function values at the interval endpoints, and "open" when > and <, i.e. they do not use the function values at the endpoints.

  7. Runge's phenomenon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runge's_phenomenon

    In the mathematical field of numerical analysis, Runge's phenomenon (German:) is a problem of oscillation at the edges of an interval that occurs when using polynomial interpolation with polynomials of high degree over a set of equispaced interpolation points.

  8. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method

    An illustration of Newton's method. In numerical analysis, the Newton–Raphson method, also known simply as Newton's method, named after Isaac Newton and Joseph Raphson, is a root-finding algorithm which produces successively better approximations to the roots (or zeroes) of a real-valued function.

  9. Romberg's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romberg's_method

    In contrast, further Newton-Cotes methods produce increasingly differing weights, eventually leading to large positive and negative weights. This is indicative of how large degree interpolating polynomial Newton-Cotes methods fail to converge for many integrals, while Romberg integration is more stable.
