Shepard's Method of "Metric Interpolation" to Bivariate and Multivariate Interpolation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Shepard developed a scheme for interpolation to arbitrarily spaced discrete bivariate data. This scheme provides an explicit global representation for an interpolant which satisfies a maximum principle and which reproduces constant functions. The interpolation method is basically an inverse distance formula which is generalized to any Euclidean metric. These techniques extend to include interpolation to partial derivative data at the interpolation points.

Bivariate mean value interpolation on circles of the same radius
We consider bivariate mean-value interpolationproblem, where the integrals over circles are interpolation data. In this case the problem is described over circles of the same radius and with centers are on astraight line and it is shown that in this case the interpolation is not correct.
متن کاملOn Multivariate Interpolation by Weights
The aim of this paper is to study a particular bivariate interpolation problem, named interpolation by weights. A minimal interpolation space is derived for these interpolation conditions. An integral formula for the remainder is given, as well as a superior bound for it. An expression for g(D)(Ln(f)) is obtained.

The interpolation operator Sjj is defi...
متن کاملTRIVARIATE APPROXIMATION OPERATORS ON CUBE BY PARAMETRIC EXTENSIONS by Teodora C ă tina
The interpolation by polynomials or other functions is a rather old method in applied mathematics. In the paper of M. Gasca and T. Sauer [9] it is mentioned that the word ''interpolation'' has apparently been introduced by J.Wallis as early as 1655. Compared to this, polynomial interpolation in several variables is a relatively new topic and it probably only started in the second half of 19 cen...
متن کاملStrictly Positive Definite Functions on Spheres
In this paper we study strictly positive definite functions on the unit sphere of the m-dimensional Euclidean space. Such functions can be used for solving a scattered data interpolation problem on spheres. Since positive definite functions on the sphere were already characterized by Schoenberg some fifty years ago, the issue here is to determine what kind of positive definite functions are act...
