From infants to adult travelers, language learners are faced with figuring out which words refer to which referents from situations that contain many words and referents.

A multivariate Powell-Sabin interpolant

We consider the problem of constructing a C1 piecewise quadratic interpolant, Q, to positional and gradient data defined at the vertices of a tessellation of n-simplices in IR. The key to the interpolation scheme is to appropriately subdivide each simplex to ensure that certain necessary geometric constraints are satisfied by the subdivision points. We establish these constraints using the Bern...
